Romance Readers Reading Challenges discussion

Hello,

I was just wondering if the Prime Membership for Amazon is worth having? Does anyone have it? Pros? Cons?

Thanks

Elke

Hi Elke ... I have it. I love it for buying movies and stuff that is sent by UPS. It says there are free kindle books but I don't know how to use that. I use it mainly for free shipping and fast delivery.

weird, i posted a comment and it didn't save...

if you are just getting it for the kindle (lending library), then I don't think its worth it, but if you get a lot of stuff sent to you, it is (at least to me) because its free 2-day shipping

Yea it would be for just Kindle books. I have looked at their list of free monthly books and none catch my attention. As for getting stuff sent to me the free 2-day is great...but I don't mind waiting the 5-7 days (thats free). Maybe it is not worth it for me.

Thanks for the input ladies!

you only get a book a month; I haven't really checked the streaming out to know how that is...you can always try it for the month and then cancel it if you decide it isn't worth it

Do you have a Kindle Fire, Elke? Because if you do, then you could stream movies with the Prime Membership.

But I agree that if it's only for the books, then it might not be worth it.

@D.G.,
Yes I got it for Christmas, I saw that but most movies I have seen already. Hmmm....I don't think I will use it.

@Dee,

Yes only one a month...I "borrowed" a book this month to see how it worked, and I was done with it in a couple of days. Now if they allowed more than one a month then I would definitely get it!

I have a Kindle Touch and I'm a Prime member. It's worth to get Prime if you have multiple people in the same house or you get stuck paying 80 dollars a year. There's 3 other people in my house that are also Prime members and we only pay 20 dollars a year. In order to borrow kindle books for free if you are a Prime member, I think you need to go on the actual Kindle to do it. I haven't tried it yet in case it doesn't work since I can't afford to buy any Kindle books at the moment.

Hey guys,

I have another question...on the Kindle Fire, can we download our own movies on it?

For example I have a whole season of a show on my PC and would like to have it on the Kindle.

Thanks!
