Napoleon trailer 2023 - Joaquin Phoenix

Has been at full price $24.99 to buy at amazon prime for this whole year, would it be so hard to give us a lower price? this is ridiculous and super greedy on there part

and the same goes for Killers Of The Flower Moon - Martin Scorsese also at full price this whole year

I'll be damned if I pay full price for the two movies above, comin' amazon loosen the purse strings and lower your prices

Owe Dune: Part Two (Bonus X-Ray Edition) was only on amazon prime for a couple month's and fell to $12.99 earlier on this month and I bought it

Duh...it's Amazon. Terrible Corporation

And they act surprised when people turn to piracy.

Breaking news: Corporations charge as much as they can get away with for everything. Film at 11.

Its $20 across all platforms as far as I can tell so its not just Amazon being evil. I'd imagine that the price has more to do with the studio than the streaming platform anyway.

[Kobs]

There's only one way to fight that, don't buy it till the price looks good to you, they'll eventually get it and adjust the prices accordingly

Same goes with the ridiculous prices of GPU's

I CAN'T believe that they have the gall to charge full price fore something as critical as... err wait... what is it we're talking about here? Movies... oh...

Yeah... no. I'm sorry but it's just stupid to accuse someone else as 'greedy' just because they aren't charging a price that you want/are willing to pay for an item you want (especially when what we're talking about is entertainment). If that is what qualifies as 'being greedy' then you should really look in a mirror as that argument can be applied both ways.

That's not to say....

...that there's anything wrong with that sentiment. That is how it markets work, you make a decision about whether the price asked for a good is personally worth it to you.

I largely prefer community-based options, avoids all the nonsense like this...

$25 will get you a good VPN for a year, do what you will with that information.
