Sometimes the formatting of your posts are hard to read so will attempt to break down my thoughts or answer your follow-ups as best as I can. Would need to put a time limit of 15 minutes on it as heading out soon
C- 1. Not a fan of monopoly companies, believe Amazon have gotten too big in the webspace for online shopping.
H - Q1 "Isnt that just the way things are going? I remember the days when supermarkets used to just sell food."
C- Is that ok with you? Not saying it should or shouldn't be, just a slight concern about other competition. Can't be good for the customers (us) in the long term surely?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I am not sure that me being ok with it matters, because it is happening anyway. Although I think that Amazon offer the best deal on many products, which obviously benefits consumers. I try not to get annoyed about stuff that I have no control over.
C - 2. Dark patterns on the website, a hassle to buy something without being really, really sure you don't want Prime/free delivery.
H - Q2-? Whats new about companies trying to sell additional products to their customer base? I think Prime is really good value for money. I am not alone in thinking this. Prime has 200 million subscribers worldwide. I dont even look upon it as an extra payment, as after deciding to take it up, I knocked a couple of bits which I didnt need, off my Sky package. I still had kids stuff in the Sky package, and my Grandkids have grown up, and I could never appreciate the difference between HD, and SD, which costs £5 odd per month. I think I am just about to start saving a further £8 per month by cancelling Sky Cinema, as I cant remember the last time they released a decent film. So I think I got Netflix, and Prime out of the savings I made on Sky. I think I now have a much better tv package than I started with, for around the same money, with far more choice. In addition, I have gained a number of other benefits from Prime.
C - What's new about companies trying to sell additional products to customer base? Nothing is the short version and because of time I can't answer further at the moment.
Can't deny at the moment Amazon Prime is great value for money. I must ask though, is that the biggest factor for you?
You seem to be very happy with Prime and that can only be a good thing.
I think it is great value for money. I watch a lot of tv, listen to audio books, and my wife reads kindle books. That is why I subscribe. I wouldnt let any bridges being dismantled and rebuilt influence my decision
C - 3. Jeff Bezos wants/is going to sail his "superyacht" through Rotterdam and the bridge that is in it's way is to be dismantled.
H - Wouldnt you like to be able to afford to do that? Look at it again, but with an open mind.
C - Not really, what would be the purpose of it? To show-boat? We likely agree in spirit in regard to having an open mind however I do not think I would ever get to a mind where sailing through a city and asking/telling them to dismantle a monument (built in 1800s I believe) so I can get through. This goes for any monuments, there are a few monuments I really don't like and would prefer to destroy or dismantle them, not this one.
I meant being able to afford the biggest yacht in the world of its type. The bridge is really a big red herring. The Dutch company that took on the contract knew it would have to happen, as it is the only route to the sea.
Rotterdam has confirmed it will dismantle a historic bridge to allow a superyacht built for Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to fit through.
The record-breaking luxury yacht is being built by Dutch firm Oceanco and was linked to Mr Bezos last year.
The vessel is reported to be 417ft (127m) long and too tall to fit through the Koningshaven Bridge.
A spokesman for the mayor confirmed the plan to reporters, with Mr Bezos set to foot the bill through Oceanco.
Reports emerged in Dutch media on Tuesday that the middle section of the Dutch city's bridge, known locally as De Hef, would be temporarily removed to allow the 130ft (40m) high boat to sail through.
The move is controversial because the steel bridge has a long history, and is now a national monument. It previously went through a major renovation which saw it out of action from 2014 to 2017, when officials said it would not be dismantled again.
The AFP news agency quoted the mayor's office as saying the jobs created by the construction of the vessel prompted the plan, and pledged the bridge would be rebuilt in its current form.
"It's the only route to the sea," a mayoral spokesman added.
I have read your posts to my mother and she is quite in agreement with a lot of what you say. The quote "looks like he is onto a good thing". That's quite the compliment from mum.
Little background, she phones Sky, I would say twice a year to debate the prices and rightly in my view. She thinks Sky is pricey. It is and is antiquated too.
She will look into the HD stuff with Sky and phone to save the money over the next week or so. In the meantime I pay for her Disney and have cancelled my Netflix account which she uses up the stairs.
That Netflix account may not have been needed at all as it's no use to the account holder . She uses my sisters Netflix account downstairs so two other people's accounts.
You may have saved us money and gotten my mum to see clearer. What a night!
Great news.
H - Wouldnt you like to be able to afford to do that? Look at it again, but with an open mind.
Think I 'hear' you now
I also got 12 months free Apple tv when I bought my phone, and 12 months free Discovery plus through Sky. They both run out in April, so I must remember to cancel them before they start charging me.

I have just cancelled my SKY subscription Entertainment package altogether. I only really watched SKY Sports Racing, and some Documentaries, and because I bought my Dad SKY (everything package) as a birthday present when it was on offer 2 years ago, I can get his package through SKY-Go. You can get it on up to 3 further devices, so I have it on my lappy, the wife's Smart TV, and on a Tablet that my daughters use.
When they said my Dad's package was going up to Full price after the Promo finished, I cancelled it completely....... waited 2 weeks 'til they offered him/me it for half price, and started it up again.
The only thing we miss is the record (programmes are repeated so often that that doesn't really matter), Pause/Rew/FF but we are ok with that, and can get a set-top box that does all that if we want.
Hope this helps anyone who is looking to save some penniz because of 'The BIG SQqquueeeeeeezzZE'
As I wouldnt be able to sell the downgrade to Mrs Hayes, I will be forced to continue paying for the multiscreen each month.

I am certain she would appreciate your comments. I agree with them. There is more chance of me becoming the next Pope, than her accepting that she cant record her soaps etc, and not able to ff through the adverts. I wouldnt even attempt it.

On which note, except for Sport, where I only ever watch "live" & so can't avoid ad breaks, I never watch ANY TV that had ad breaks unless I've pre-recorded it so I can FF through them.
I'm quite new - just a few months - to the glories of NetFlix & Prime, but the lack of ads is an absolute joy. NetFlix is quite easy to FF through, as are all regular Sky shows, but I find it quite cumbersome to FF on Prime.

Sky offering 'best ever' price for TV with broadband and it's super cheap
The incredible Sky offer gives customers the chance to subscribe to one of its popular TV and broadband plans at its "best ever" price.
The new deal, which is available at sky.com, includes a TV package and Sky's superfast broadband for just £30 per month.
It would normally set you back £25 per month for Sky's broadband alone - so you'll be getting Sky Q for just £5 extra with the broadcaster's latest bargain offer.
I'm an Amazon junkie and have been for years. I order so much from there that I've become the no 1 target for brushing 'scams'. I hesitate to call it a scam because free stuff just turns up from time to time and it's usually pretty decent, which is the whole point of a brushing scam. They expect what they sent you to be so good that you end up reviewing it.
Fwiw I even order Amazon brand loo roll on there. It's great value and top quality.
I was surprised when I logged in to my orders this morning. The headline tells me I have placed 45 orders in the last 3 months. A lot of them will be books. I get audio books from Audible which Amazon owns. It seems that the books I get from Audible count as an Amazon order. I have got 20 odd left to read.
