Is it just me, or that Prime Video is a blantant rip off in the West as it costs so much when they could’ve priced it the same on what they consider a “poor country”. As mentioned in the first table below, prices are a f*cking joke (especially US Amazon) $139?! SERIOUSLY?
This is what I mean:
| Prime | US | UK | EU | AU |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly | $14.99 | £8.99 | 8,99€ | A$9.99 |
| Annually | $139.00 | £95.00 | 89,90€ | A$79.00 |
How much the same subscription is in Japan
| Prime | in USD | in GBP | in EUR | in AUD |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly: ¥600 | ~$3.70 | ~£2.80 | ~3,25€ | ~A$5.30 |
| Annually: ¥5900 | ~$36.60 | ~£27.65 | ~31,90€ | ~A$52.15 |
Another reference (i.e. India) for the same thing:
| Prime | in USD | in GBP | in EUR | in AUD |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly: ₹299 | ~$3.20 | ~£2.40 | ~2,75€ | ~A$4.50 |
| Annually: ₹1499 | ~$15.90 | ~£12.00 | ~13,85€ | ~A$22.65 |

West bad. East good. Right?
