Cost of Amazon Prime increasing by 20%

[tevake]

It's funny that they recorded much higher profits over the last quarter than expected.
This was reported the same day that the price hike came out. Humm.

I don't use prime enough now to justify the price. But my Sister really enjoys the streaming content via family bennifits. Next year I'll ask if she wants to split the cost.

Cheers Richard

Was at the dentist a while ago.
Got X-rays.
Had to wait for the results because AWS was down temporarily.

Huh?
My personal medical info is dependent on being bounced back from 'the cloud'?
The images could be manipulated along the way by hackers.
That's creepy.

My membership just renewed a month or so ago, but I will think about cancelling next year. I haven't really been buying as much on amazon as I used to.
