Netflix does offer more, by a good bit. Prime Video on the other hand is much cheaper.

But OP, I think if you can only have one, you may want to consider what particular shows you want to watch. Is there one headline series - a Netflix Orginal or Prime Original - that you want to watch? House of Cards was an early hit for Netflix (your mileage may vary on whether it lasted the distance), while similarly, the Grand Tour is Prime Video’s flagship.

Use the trials, as the previous poster said, and see what you like.
