Because I want two drives, one for system and applications, one for games, and at $99 I was happy with the 960s. I don't mind SATA cables myself, and I'm only going to have those two drives + a DVD or Bluray drive in the system, so not many cables. Plus I don't know what motherboard I'll be getting yet and I can use the SATA drives no matter what, even if it ends up not having NVMe slots.

That's really freaking weird.

I managed to get the video credit in the app, even though it didn't show up on the web, and then I got a $10 credit for spending at least $10 at Whole Foods, but that was all I qualified for. I think their goal with the credits is to get Prime members to try things they haven't tried before, but it does really suck for those of us who have tried those things before.

They should have a cut-off, like if you haven't accessed those things in the last year you qualify for the credit again. It would even meet their goals, since it would be a reminder, "Remember this thing that's part of your Prime sub? Here, try it out again and see if you like it now!"

Also a smaller credit for those who use them regularly, "As thanks for being a regular Prime Video user, here's a $2 credit to use on Prime Day." It would make members feel appreciated and more likely to spend money on the Prime Day deals.
