I used to watch "The Osbournes" and whenever I hear of the McRib now, I'm ALWAYS reminded of the episode where Jack excitedly says, "The McRib is back!", and Kelly starts fighting with him about it's importance. It was hilarious!

The Longmont times newspaper is now reporting on the Shifty underbelly of the audio industry.

Amazon adds streaming video to Prime sub... Angeles Times)

Not a ton of content yet, but definitely a nice bonus to something I was already willing to pay for. Maybe I'll actually start watching Doctor Who.

Thanks for the heads up on that Charles. I probably would have logged into Amazon and got the message but since off work until next Monday I’m glad I know about this now to check it out.

I saw that this morning, looked through some of the content and didn't see much. But it would push me towards becoming a prime member if I found some good content. I made a mental note to check back periodically.

With the content available now I don’t imagine it will draw in a lot of new people, but I already have a Prime membership since I order enough from them to make that worthwhile alone. This is just an added bonus for as long as it lasts.

Another feature I had just noticed recently, maybe they’ve had it for a long time and I just didn’t know, is automatic reorder. I’ve started getting most of my vitamins and supplements this way and it saves several dollars per order on top of already saving the 8% sales tax I get hit with here.

I just ordered a Roku box to handle the Amazon streaming (along with the Netflix and Hulu+ of which I am already a member).

I use the automatic reorder for everything where it is offered. But I set my reorder time to 6 months. Then I just manually reorder when I need more, or cancel after I've had enough. That way it keeps surprise shipments from happening, but I still get the nice discount.
