    Is anybody else frustrated by Prime Video's clunky GUI, but more annoyingly, the way in which it operates?

    Specifically:
    • when browsing through genres, out of let's say 500 items, the same 10(+-) or so titles keep cycling through and repeating over and over again effectively reducing the actual item number by about 50%. What really chaps my hide is that there are movies which haven't been repeated and may be good, interspersed between those carousel of duplicates... so you gotta keep going hoping you get lucky. ughh.
    • free (with prime) videos are mixed up with fee based videos. Wtf? Nothing worse than browsing or searching and finding thee perfect movie only to have to pay for it. ugh. That's not why I have prime for. And I do understand movie rights and contracts, but just give me a button so I can at least opt out of those for-fee videos. Not that hard I don't think.
    Yes, if you select prime recommended movies from the menu, those are free... but try scrolling through that mess.
    Also weird other stuff but those are the two main ones for me.
