Also wanna add:

  1. Missing subtitles in the language you want (looking at you apple tv without English subtitles on local language movies.)
  2. Ads
  3. Only the 2 random seasons in the middle of a TV show are available. And new seasons not added.
  4. Ads

As a person who loves watching movies with subtitles, this is why I'm canceling Amazon Prime. The fuckers literally won't offer me English language subtitles for some flicks because I Iive outside the US.

I don't care if the movie itself is in English, why the hell can't I watch with subtitles in the same language as the film itself? Holy fuck.

And rip watching a Christopher Nolan Movie without subtitles nowadays

Yep, exactly.

Fuck you - if I'm paying to watch, I should get the very basic of features. Piracy is literally a better user experience right now.
