Anybody using Amazon Prime for video streaming?

Hubby and I are in the trial period for Amazon Prime's video streaming. So far, I'm not too impressed. We ended up paying for two movies yesterday, one of which is very old (In Harm's Way.)

The movie prices are less than what we were being charged though Cox In Demand, but so far I don't see much benefit in sticking with Amazon Prime.

Anyone have any good tales to tell about Amazon Prime? Is there a good reason we should stick with it?

P.S. - I also learned I would be charged for several books I want to read.  

Have not tried it. We only have Netflix.

Haven't tried it but I was considering doing so. I use Amazon a lot for buying videos through the mail, but I usually watch the movie first to see if it's something I want to keep in my video library.
It would be convenient to both watch and buy at the same  site.

I use Netflix also but their inventory seems to be shrinking instead of expanding. They are getting rid of a lot of the classics for cost reasons. I read  that  somewhere recently.

PB, I have not tried it, but I have looked into it. For the movie and TV show offerings I cannot imagine paying $79.00 a year for something that I would rarely use.

We are not impressed with it. We would still have to pay for almost anything we want to watch. We're still looking for those "thousands" of free movies and books. Just can't find'em, at least not many.

We will probably cancel.
