So, hum, why would I accept the hefty price increase on Prime if I get quite literally nothing in return? I do not own a single one of the ‘compatible devices’ and apparently my browser (which works just fine on Youtube…) is not ‘compatible‘ either.

I just wanted fast shipping with no additional costs ¬.¬



Do you run lynx or something?

Edit: it's probably not your browser, but you do have to install silverlight.


Opera 12.16 on Debian, no Silverlight here. I even have a Firefox installed, too, but that still needs Silverlight which is not available for Linux (at least not in any of the official repositories).


Yep, that'd be the issue.


Wait, Lynx runs youtube just fine?
