Naturally we hammer Music like there’s no tomorrow - our Echo devices are all logged in to it as is everyone’s phone, the living room TV and my iPad. We also have family sharing set up so we actually use the premier bundle, going up £4 to £36.95.

Amazon set to charge $2.99 to remove ads from prime video, adverts will be rolling out next year on the service, as we all know by now what happens with these services in the US tends to come to the UK shortly afterwards too https://cordcuttersnews.com/amazon-w...video-service/

I've not worked out how much value I get out of free delivery to be honest, but still thinking of cancelling but I'll see how it goes when my Neo QLED gets delivered tomorrow when I test 4K content.

So that would give you 316 deliveries to cover the cost of a full price UK subscription, do you make that many? Lol

Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat
The people prophesising doom for Netflix had better think again. The other streamers are doing pretty well, too.
https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2023...-growth-slows/
[EXTRACT]
Disney+, Paramount+, Netflix and Apple TV+ all achieved strong subscriber growth, according to the latest Kantar Entertainment on Demand (EoD) data on the global video streaming market.
Netflix continues to continues to dominate, and is present in two-thirds of streaming households, whilst 49% of these households consider Netflix to be their primary streaming subscription. Whilst this percentage has dipped from 53%, compared to the same period last year, the platform continues to perform strongly despite half of Netflix households subscribing to four or more services last quarter.
However, it is Disney+, Paramount+ and Apple TV+ that have emerged as leaders in new subscribers. Kantar estimates up to 30% of Disney+ users are sharing their accounts with others. In response, Disney+ announced a forthcoming password-sharing crackdown, set to commence in Canada on November 1, 2023.

Prime seems to be an exception, possibly because they’ve not added much good content recently. All the others seem to be OK, and it’s nice to see Apple+ doing well. Some of their content is pretty interesting. The Silo is the latest to generate my interest.
