But they introduced the fee for no ads in prime. This is just another Corp money grab. They really disgust me.

I love the Amazon prime ads I keep hearing about how you get ad-free podcasts and can listen to all your favorite podcasts ad-free. Then in the 2x speed disclaimer at the end it says some titles may have ads.

It really reaffirms my decision to never pay for Amazon prime.
