I assume that Amazon’s Prime Video is just the selection of freebies they offer if you are a Prime member.
Yep, the selection is getting better but most of the video on Amazon is either rent or pay for.

That said, I dropped AP when it jumped from $79 to $99. Just didn't see the purported value any longer and haven't missed it at all.
I don't have AP because I don't think it is worth it.
Like you, I just make sure my order is big enough to qualify for free standard shopping and I don't care if it takes a week to get here (I think my orders average about 5 days).
I also shop around online for the best prices. Amazon is no longer the cheapest in many cases and they no longer price match except TVs. Often, retailers will also have free two day shipping to their local stores. If I had AP, I would feel obligated to order from Amazon to justify the $119 yearly cost so I would be paying that on top of the higher Amazon price (in many cases).
As far as video, the Amazon Prime catalog is getting bigger but I would rather put my money into a Netflix subscription than an Amazon Prime subscription.

Like most people, I'll grumble about the price, but I'll suck it up and I'll just pay it.
My recommendation for most people is to cancel Amazon Prime when your year's subscription is up. Then, like cord cutting, give it a try without Amazon Prime for a month or two. If you miss it, just resubscribe. If you don't find yourself missing it, you just saved $119 .

Last I checked, the amount you needed for free shipping without Prime was $35. I wonder if that went up too?
It keeps changing. I looked today and it was $25.
