I have Netflix, HBO and Showtime so it's not like I'll have nothing to watch when Amazon Prime demands PPV for later seasons. As always, you have the same choice: Yes or no. It's business. You decide if you want to play their game. Don't whine. Just wine and go elsewhere. Makes for a happier person.
It's not necessarily an Amazon decision. The producers of the series may have bumped up the cost, making PPV the only way to offer it. And at $0.99 cents per episode, no one is going broke watching it.
