    Amazon Prime - Have you quit?

    I have pretty much stopped watching prime. All the time the fee for free delivery and the other benefits remains reasonable i will keep my subscription. I'm not an amazon hater like some. A lot of small business benefit from selling the amazon market place giving them access to far more...
