Cancelled prime when Bezos showed his ugly bald head at inauguration. After 20 years. But I doubt they miss little me. Thriftbooks is great for ordering books. There is nothing that amazon offers that one can't get elsewhere. Cancelled Hulu, too, with the Kimmel debacle, as well as paramount+. CBS/Weiss is now trash. Amazon needs to suffer the large scale defeat such as ABC did.
