Made me choke on my coffee....Agree on the streaming selection, but use Prime myself and it pays for itself with the 2-day shipping at Christmas time for me. The rest of the year is just a nice bonus to me knowing just about anything I order will be here in 2-days.Quote:

I agree, they are not a replacement for netflix yet. I don't have any doubt they will become the golden standard eventually though. I find the amazon service, without taking the selection into account, to be of lesser quality. I get quite a lot of buffering with amazon, but never with netflix.Quote:

I'm pretty heavily invested into the iOS ecosystem, so I find myself watching something on Prime then buying it on iTunes. If Amazon offered H.264 MP4s I'd buy from Amazon, but I'm not buying into any Windows Media Player BS. The iTunes DRM is also pretty easy to strip away.
What do yo use to strip the iTunes DRM? I currently buy video elsewhere and then format to iTunes because I refuse to deal with their DRM crap.Quote:

Looking to start up Breaking bad and my wife is currently going through Weeds. Just wrapped up Downton Abby and Scrubs. If they had the Adult Swim shows, I'd probably never leave the house.Quote:

I'm one of the ones that likes The Regular Show.

I love Adventure Time but have never seen Regular Show. Am I an anomaly?!Quote:

I didn't want to start a new thread for this, but Infinity Blade is on sale for .99 for iOS. Just grabbed it. Going to try it out on my daughters ipad2.
Adventure Time is hilarious. I watch it and GI Joe Renegades with my son.
Yup. It's slightly lower then 15% because of how the discounts apply but its close enough.Quote:
