The SanDisk Ultra-Fast 2TB SSD Is Flying Off Shelves, Amazon Dropped Its Price (Again) to a New Low

The SanDisk 2TB SSD is one of them and Amazon just dropped the price to $144 from its list price of $210 (32% off) which is an all-time low for a drive that’s an absolute bestseller.

These AirPods-Style Earbuds Are Nearly Free, Amazon Slashes Prices by 86% Just Before Prime Day

Amazon Prime Video Now Showing Nearly 6 Minutes of Ads Per Hour, Double What It Was

Amazon is now showing four to six minutes of advertisements per hour on its Prime Video streaming service.

According to the report, which is based on information from six ad buyers and documents, Amazon notified investors of the increase in ads but has not made a public announcement of the change.

Blue Origin Delays New Glenn Again—and It’s a Bigger Setback Than It Seems

After gaining momentum last year, Jeff Bezos’ rocket venture has hit another snag. The second flight of Blue Origin’s New Glenn slipped from early spring to late August, messing with the company’s original plan to launch its giant rocket eight times in 2025. Beyond missing launch targets, New Glenn’s recent delay also puts Project Kuiper—the internet satellites owned by Amazon—at risk of losing a critical operations license. This week, Dave Limp, the chief executive of Blue Origin, announced th

Amazon may double the time you spend watching ads on Prime Video

How to Avoid Scams and Shoddy Wares on Amazon (2025)

With a few keystrokes you can find almost anything on Amazon ... and buy it with as little as a single click. It’s a wonderbox of capitalism. I once typed in “yak” for no good reason and Amazon’s algorithms suggested “yak cheese himalayan dog chews.” So I hit Enter and up popped pages filled with hundreds of different dog chews that I have since learned are an all-natural, satisfying, long-lasting treat for pups. Amazon had over 300 Himalayan dog chews to sift through, from hundreds of companies

Amazon Prime Video Now Comes With Double the Ads!

It wasn’t that long ago that an ad-free experience was the default for streaming services. But companies need to make sure the line keeps going up, and one way to do that is to monetize the audience by serving them ads. Amazon introduced ads to its Prime Video streaming service last year, with the promise that it would be light and unintrusive. Well, time to juice those profits, because Adweek reports that Amazon will double the number of ads that it serves per hour to its viewers. Look at this
