    What good are streaming services if you have to pay for movies in addition to the monthly service fees? Prime is by far the worst of them all... @PrimeVideo

    Amazon Prime Video is genuinely the worst OTT experience money can buy right now. Paid subscription. Full ads. One episode per week. I am not joking. You are paying them and they are still making you watch ads and then making you wait seven days for the next episode like it is 2009 television. Netflix figured this out years ago. Drop everything. Let people binge. Let the internet explode. That is how you win. The only reason Prime Video still exists in India is The Boys. That is it. One show. Holding an entire platform hostage. The day The Boys ends Prime Video loses half its subscribers overnight and they fully deserve it. #PrimeVideo #TheBoys #OTT

    @blkv3n0m25 @PrimeVideo You don’t know me or my beliefs. That’s the problem with many today you make too many assumptions. So please **** off. Thanks.

    @MiLaThaMighty @PrimeVideo You’ll have to help me understand something you’re saying that people got mad that you weren’t getting mad at the show and that changed things how..?

    Every single HIV meds commercial I’ve seen on @PrimeVideo features black people, whether as straight couples or gay, with the occasional gay white sprinkled in. Stop the erasure of white people. Show them in more stigma-associated medical issues having commercials tf

    Jon Champion as main commentator on @PrimeVideo #ChampionsLeague is just terrible. Talk about what’s actually happening!! 95% of the time he’s just saying players surnames. Not a hint of passion or excitement about anything happening.

    @PrimeVideo Why are you movies being lumped into TV categories (Recently added TV, Top TV, etc) ? It's been like this for weeks now. Please, fix this!

    Wow @amazon @PrimeVideo ****** up the language for Star Wars Episode 1: A Phantom Menace. The introductory crawl is in German and all alien subtitles are in German! Apparently this has been an issue for over a year now. Not a good look for streaming services. Imagine what else they are changing for the content you paid for! I may have to go back to blue rays. This is appalling.
