Netflix or Prime Video - Week 9



Netflix or Prime Video?

Netflix and Prime Video are streaming apps where you can watch all your favorite movies and TV series. However, which one is better, and which one should you subscribe to? Prime Video is owned by Amazon and has over 200 million users. A Prime Video subscription is 14.99 dollars a month and 139 per year. Prime Video has various popular movies and TV shows like Spiderman, The Menu, and Batman. All the movies and TV shows are categorized by their genre; they have horror, romance, comedy, and every other great genre you can think of. New content is uploaded almost every day to Prime Video, which can ensure that newer media can come out. Although Prime Video has all these qualities, is it better than Netflix? Prime Video still requires extra purchases to watch all movies and television. Prime Video has a larger selection than Netflix; however, Prime Video is not inclusive. Netflix is a popular streaming company that has a large selection of movies, TV shows, and short films. All the movies are categorized by their genre and also by age. You have the generic genres and also a kids section. The kid's section is filtered to be child-friendly, which will secure what your child will watch and make sure that they aren't watching anything out of their age range. Netflix has over 284 million users, which is increasing each day. Netflix has different subscription plans; however, a typical subscription costs anywhere from $6.99 to $19.99 per month. A Netflix subscription is not only cheaper than Prime Video, but it is all-inclusive. Unlike Prime Video, all media is available to the user with no extra charges. While both of these streaming platforms are great in their own ways, Netflix is becoming increasingly better. Netflix is cheaper, more inclusive, and has a selection that only has the best and most favorite movies and shows uploaded.

    I personally have both Netflix and Prime Video and I feel that I use both equally. However, I do get annoyed whenever I use Prime Video and I have to pay extra. Since I am already paying to use the platform, why should I pay even more to watch a specific movie? On the other hand, Netflix has been lacking a lot of the movies or TV-shows that I want to watch. Recently, I feel like Netflix mostly has movies made by Netflix and very few options that are popular and that I want to watch. So, having both is beneficial for me, even though my parents might not be happy about paying for both.

    Wow, I learned a lot about these services. As for which one I like I like both. I think they both have their fair share of great shows. Sure one is more expensive, but without both you miss out on shows that are offered by them. While I understand how people think it is smarter to buy only Netflix as it is cheaper you're missing out on a whole world of tv shows.

    This is a great blog and I learned alot about both these services that I didn't know. I have both of these steaming services and feel both of them have a good selection of movies and tv shows. I think the price doesn't matter because they have different varieties and genres of movies. I personally feel that netflix has a much better selection of movies but prime has a better selection of tv shows.

    I personally use both of these streaming services, and I much prefer netflix. The benefit of Amazon prime is its extremely large selection of movies and shows; however, its downfall is that the popular content is usually behind a second pay wall, so it ends up being a lot more expensive if you choose to utilize its large selection. Netflix on the other hand has a smaller selection but watching its content comes at no extra cost making it the better streaming service for your money.

Sarah - Week 4 - Florida whether is not a great as people say it is.

      Many people say that Florida's weather is great because it is sunny, happy, and never cold. However, in my opinion, there is such a thing as too much sun. I don't understand how anyone could enjoy the pain your eyes feel going from a neutral room to the bright outdoors. Sun also isn't necessarily good for you. Its main health benefits are that it can boost your mood and provide you with vitamin D. However, its negative health effects include damage to your skin, eyes, and immune system. Excessive skin damage from the sun can even cause skin cancer.     Another reason why I don't like Florida's weather is because it only has two seasons. It is either hurricane season, or it is extra hot. Plus, you don't get to experience the beautiful colors of the trees changing in fall or the gorgeous scenery of a white winter. A few Floridians have never even seen snow before. This is crazy to me since playing in the snow with my brothers was one of my favorite thi...

Leah Mousseri - Week 2 - A Book in a Game?!

Image
      In the 21st century, there's a game for everyone. From shooting games to simple farming simulators it's almost impossible to not find a video game that interests you. One category of video games that I think is disliked by many for the wrong reasons is visual novel games. These games largely consist of dialogue and are often slow-paced and more relaxing compared to other genres. Visual novel games focus more on the story and characters rather than things like puzzles or combat.       The most common argument that I've heard against these games is that they're the same as a regular visual novel and have little to no actual gameplay in them. From my personal experience playing games in this genre, this is true for many visual novel games. I have played games that almost entirely consist of dialogue with a few choices that determine which ending you get. In my opinion, these games aren't very entertaining unless the story is well-written and compell...

Zander 5: Why Do We Care About Remakes?

Image
  A pattern I’ve begun to notice recently is that many of the most popular video games and movies often tend to be remakes of old pieces of media. While the most obvious examples of this would be the remakes of old Disney movies that have been released over the past several years, there are many more examples of this. For example, one of the most popular games this year was the remake of Resident Evil 4, and one of the most anticipated upcoming releases is the remake of Persona 3. So why is this, and what is the interest of playing a game you’ve already played, or watching a movie you’ve already seen? Well, firstly, there’s the appeal to those who never played or watched the previous piece of media. The appeal to this group is obvious, as to them, it’s new content. Even if one already knows the plot and twists of a story, experiencing it first hand can still be entertaining. Even if  you’re already familiar with a piece of media, viewing or playing it’s remake doesn’t complete...
