Amazon found a way to charge 200 million people for something they already owned. Twice.
Step 1: Insert ads into a product people were already paying $139/year for. Step 2: Charge $2.99/mo to remove the ads you just added. Step 3: Take away 4K, which was free for years. Step 4: Charge $4.99/mo to get it back.
Total time: 26 months. Total new revenue at even 15% conversion: $1.8 billion per year.
The genius is the sequencing. No single step is outrageous enough to cancel over. You don't cancel Prime over $3. You don't cancel over $5. You definitely don't cancel over 4K because most people don't even notice the resolution downgrade until they watch on a big screen.
Amazon needed $3.6 billion per year in new revenue to cover NFL and NBA rights. They got halfway there by selling people back their own product one feature at a time.
WELCOME TO BLACK TWlTTER @blacktwiterthrd
Amazon is removing 4K streaming from Prime Video in April and putting it behind its ad-free tier paywall The ad-free tier is also increasing from $3 to $5 a month

@UPS I don’t know how you guys can get worse every time I call you but you do. It’s actually impressive how shit your customer service is.

@JeffreyLuscombe I’d love it. Our government would never successfully build it thoo 🤷.

Why do Conservatives hate this so much? Anyone?

@KrispyFlakes2k I always thought he was gonna be the one with the legit NBA career and not Duncan. Boy was I wrong on that

@MPringles676967 @urapervchrisc @NHLRumourReport Bro, you don’t pay guys 5 million a year to be the 4C.
English

@urapervchrisc @ConnerMonroe4 @NHLRumourReport Not saying either were good but Compher is our 4C lol what do u expect? Copp is whatever he hasn't been great but like idk what ur expecting them to be
English

@MPringles676967 @NHLRumourReport Lol cap space so he can sign guys like Compher, Copp, and Chiarot.
Hes failed here miserably. End of story.

@NHLRumourReport Letting go off Yzerman would do nothing lmaooo guy has drafted well. I'd give him 1 more year to make playoffs. We finally have some cap space to do something next year

hot take: it never needed a remake

What’s one thing you dislike about the Resident Evil 4 Remake?

@TigersJUK As far as a 4th or 5th starter goes. Hard to complain
English


@boonersports @AtoZ_Payton The 2024 starters are abysmal lol. Hilarious he included him in there
English

The two starters in 2024 aren’t good starters.
The first rd CB hasn’t came close to living up to first-rd level and a below avg starter. Mahogany has been a below avg starter at LG as well.
Context. The other 4 picks have essentially have given you nothing. And your 2nd rd pick has 46 total def snaps in two years.
Also in 2025 if you’re counting a WR3 as a starter? And also Frazier as a starter? Is it him or mahogany? Can’t count both.
2024 = bad draft
2025 = average draft (as of now)

@motionoutoftime @jakubasaurs @snazzygoth69 Agree to disagree. I’d say it’s more likely he’ll be playing back in the SHL in a couple years time.
English

@ConnerMonroe4 @jakubasaurs @snazzygoth69 Sure, but it does take awhile to acclimate to new systems, new teammates, coaching staff, etc. Like how Gibson struggled in net for the Wings the first two months.
Doubtful that Elmer is going to turn into a PPG player, but he's got the potential for 30-40 points/year.

Yo elmer where the FUCK was this in detroit
SportsNet Pittsburgh@SNPittsburgh
Elmer Soderblom with the ridiculous 🍎
English

@jakubasaurs @snazzygoth69 That was his first point in 5 games since the trade.
I’d pump the brakes on the “succeeding” thing.
English

@BFW Detroit loves their red wings man.
Hard to say if it’s top 2 cause Detroit really stands behind all 4 teams in my opinion.
English

Oh hey look. The refs ruining the ending to another game lol. @okcthunder / @celtics
