I like to apply some business logic to it.

  • I expect to use the product or functionality provided by x on a regular basis
  • The use of x has no added utility
  • The functionality and/or feature set (e.g. content) of x may degrade significantly without warning and/or recourse
  • Unavailability of x is likely to render it completely useless

If most of these conditions can be regularly sufficiently true, then searching an alternative that incorporates proper ownership is a good course of action.

Wait... "limited ads"? Are there still some ads with Spotify Premium?

The songs you listen to when you are listening on random are often ads. Record companies will do "pay for placement" deals to get songs and artists they promote out there.

They used to call it payola when it was on the radio and it was illegal.

I only have Netflix, and it's included with my t mobile.

I guess I also have amazon prime, but I just use it for the free shipping and it gets used a lot with the family.

I’m not drinking 6 specialty cups of coffee every day.

No I can't afford it, stop saying that.

Perhaps it 'tis a silly thing. But I just want to thank whoever did the art work for drawing the stick figure guy with the shotgun as being left handed and holding a left hand shotgun.

My mental status thanks you and as another member of the Bar Sinister, I also thank you.

Fuck Amazon but it is not like the others in the meme

Amazon lets you acquire physical items, of insane variety, delivered to your door, often for a price lower than you can find it in physical stores. Often delivered same day and almost certainly same week.

That's an insane value compared to something like a game company that's like "teehee you can pretend to own this until we get bored of hosting it and then poof fuck you!"

I did the math for me and even with the Amazon credit card the service wasn't worth the price. It's free shipping over ~$25(?) dollars anyway. "Prime shipping" hasn't meant anything significant since at least 2020. It's often the same as non-prime, maybe a day earlier.

If you care about the shows that maybe changes, but they have about 5 and anytime you search for something it's a tossup whether it will be included with your subscription or only available for buy/rent or on some other platform. It's even more fun when there's 'copy' of a movie included with Prime, and another available for buy/rent and and buy/rent version is at the top of the search results and the one you already paid for access to you have to scroll to see.
