Is Amazon Prime worth it?

Loaded question I'm sure but I really want your opinion of it. I'm not really planning on using it for the free two day shipping. While I might order once in a while I try to curb spending on the website.

What I really am interested in is using Prime for the lending book service and the streaming for my Kindle Fire. I love to read and probably finish 8 to 10 books a month depending on my free time. I do currently have the 30 day free trial but I'm just not sure if it's worth it. 79 dollars is a lot of money to drop on something like this.

What are your thoughts and opinions about the service?

    For the reading, it's not really worth it. Most of the books available are from no name authors trying to get their stuff out there so maybe you'll buy other works of theirs if you like it.

    But they do have a pretty good selection of streaming video. So when you add all 3 things:

    1. One free book a month

    2. Free Streaming video library

    3. Free 2 day shipping

    it becomes worth it. Or it is to me anyway.

    $79 for streaming and books? Definitely not worth it.
