Prime was the service I cut first. First they decimated the music on the cheap tier (no more albums), and later that same year shoved ads into Prime Video. Now I save on that, and don't order as much shit I don't really need from Amazon.

I now subscribe to Jellyfin Pro and VPN Plus. It's like Kaleidescape, but for poor people.

This might matter if there was anything on Prime worth watching. It's a ghost town.

I need to go back to the high seas, because while they don't have as many good shows as other streaming services, they do have The Boys and Reacher among a few other lesser known shows. They also have a bunch of good movies I've recently added to my queue.

Last time I checked you could give a visit to fmhy.net for free and make use of the tools and everything in there.

The zero dollars I'm willing to give Amazon is going up zero percent

[–] thatKamGuy@sh.itjust.works 14 points 12 hours ago

Since you’re not giving it to Amazon, and it’s zero dollars - you may as well go up ∞%!

Where/how are you getting 4k/HDR content on the high seas?

I went looking for Pluribus last weekend and the best I could find was 720p. Help.

[–] Ilandar@lemmy.today 4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

In case you weren't already doing this, search for "2160p" (not 4K). That's the standard naming convention for releases.

[–] criticon@lemmy.ca 4 points 8 hours ago

And 10bits for HDR

In other news, my media library is still playing at whatever resolution I want it to for 0 dollars.

[–] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 10 points 9 hours ago

Cancel por subscription and memberships people. They'll keep cutting features as long as you keep giving them your money.

[–] nucleative@lemmy.world 24 points 12 hours ago

Interesting... My 4K Atmos price has been quite stable over the years.

I’ve locked my money behind a “not paying for a streaming service from Amazon” tier.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 20 points 13 hours ago

Oh boy I'm really regretting cancelling my account twp years ago with the price hike...

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 1 points 6 hours ago

Pretty funny that most movies are mastered in 2k.

[–] mthomson@forum.macaque.social 7 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

Don't have a 4k tv still so I'm not giving Prime more money. But it does seem a bit Black Mirror, with always pushing the boundaries on the plans, and making them a little bit worse so they can monetise some feature for more money. Eventually they'll push too much and people will leave. Lots of services are just taking it too far now.

It seems that way because Black Mirror is inspired by reality now. They even did an episode on enshittification last season.

[–] imjustmsk@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

Black Mirror is just giving out ideas for free for them to play put. 

[–] dogs0n@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 hours ago

It's identical to Black Mirror and so is every other shiddy thing going on ;(

[–] imjustmsk@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

The call of the seas had never been louder

[–] TheAsianDonKnots@lemmy.zip 7 points 12 hours ago

Jokes on them, I don’t even get 4k on my phone and I have no fucking idea what atmos sounds like because it’s already too damn expensive on its own.

The Pirate Bay doesn't care about these things.

[–] lemmyng@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Man, this news is so sad it makes me wanna watch a CLOUD go by as I sit on the bank of a STREAM.
