Get the HD, even though it might only be 720p, or it won't look very good on all those mega-pixels! So $3/episode to watch reruns! WTF! With prices like that Amazon can afford to give away the Fires!
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here--If you have Amazon Prime, lots of TV Episodes are free. Yes, there are still episodes that cost money, because the network has decided to not allow that show to be part of Prime, I'm curious as to what show from five years ago you are trying to watch that costs $1.99?
Here's a link to the list of TV shows available for free if you have Amazon Prime: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_il_to...125828&lo=none
