Amazon announced monthly prices will increase by ¥100, and yearly prices by ¥1,000.

What do you think? Personally, if it helps drivers get a better wage I am all for it.

I mind a bit (but not enough to cancel... yet), but do you honestly think the drivers will get a better wage out of this? Is Amazon Japan any less greedy than the american one?

Probably not. To be honest, I’m a prime member for the photo storage. After google photos stopped their free tier, I looked for the cheapest cloud offering. Prime Japan was the cheapest. Shipping and music etc are just gravy for me.
