For us it comes for free from the prime account. I still refuse to watch anything on Prime video, but I believe I'm not pirating because I technically do have access to all these movies/shows. That's logical right?

Why pay for the prime account? What are you getting out of it?

Have you done the math of what you could do with $140 per year instead?

Can't speak for them but in my part of the country shipping fees are pretty high, so prime was actually a great thing when they started doing it here, I do save more than I would if instead I shopped for a slightly cheaper version with crazy high shipping in another store.
