Andrew Jassy: Just to add really one piece here, which is just, if you step back and think about a lot of subscription programs, there are a number of them that are $14, $15 a month really for entertainment content, which is more than what Prime is today. If you think about the value of Prime, which is less than what I just mentioned, where you get the entertainment content on the Prime Video side and you get the shipping benefit, the fast shipping benefit you can’t find elsewhere and you get the music benefit, you get the Prime Gaming benefit and you get the photos benefit and you get the Buy with Prime capability, use your Prime subscription on websites beyond just Amazon and some of the grocery benefits that we provide, and RxPass like we just launched to get a number of medications people take regularly for $5 a month unlimited, that is remarkable value that you just don’t find elsewhere.
And we will continue to add things to Prime and continue to experiment with lots of different features and benefits. But it’s still early days. And as we continue to make the service better and better and fully featured, we see people continuing to spend more at Amazon across our various businesses. So we’re optimistic about it.
Operator: And our final question comes from Mark Mahaney with Evercore ISI.
Mark Mahaney: Two questions. Brian, just any color on why mid-teens is kind of a holdable growth rate for AWS over the next couple of quarters, given what looks like pretty clearly, continuing deterioration in enterprise demand? And then, Andy, I wonder at a high level if you could just talk about how your priorities may have changed or the company’s priorities may have changed over the last year or so as you’ve been the CEO. And it looks like there’s a bit of a peel back on devices, a peel back on physical stores, except for groceries and then maybe a little bit more of a lean in on health. And I’m not quite sure what you’re doing with entertainment content spend like that. Maybe it’s the same, maybe it’s a little bit more. But just at a high level, how would you say your priorities have changed or are different than the prior CEOs?
Brian Olsavsky: So on the AWS growth rate, I’m not sure I can forecast for you with any level of certainty what is going to happen beyond this quarter. You kind of — this is a bit uncharted territories economically. And as we mentioned, there’s some unique things going on with the customer base that I think many in this industry are all seeing the same thing. So I don’t have a crystal ball on that one, but we are going to continue to work for to be there for our customers. And as I said in the earlier comments, we do have new deals. We have new workloads coming to the cloud. The value was there. And whether there’s short term, perhaps short-term belt tightening in the infrastructure expense by a lot of companies, I think the long-term trends are still there.
And I think the quickest way to save money is to get to the cloud, quite frankly. So there’s a lot of long-term positive in tough economic times. Saw that in 2020 when volumes for customers shifted very quickly. It led to a resurgence after that and probably acceleration of people’s journeys to the cloud, and we’ll just have to see if that happens again with what we’re seeing today.
