Granted, the rates are wonderful, but it would be nice if Amazon promised that we wouldn't get passed by on changes like this.

And I want a pony! ;-)

Ever considered how they recoup that discount? Partly by not passing through their savings to you for the duration of that commitment.

Regardless the "pay later" aspect is attractive for many customers, especially when you're in a startup situation where early cash is the most expensive.
