I'm on Student Prime. It isn't actually "full Prime". The benefits of Prime cannot be shared with the Amazon Household on Student Prime. Only the main account is getting free delivery and we do not get 20% off some of the items that the £79/year Prime members get. Only the main account is getting Prime Video. The other Household accounts can only read and share the Kindle purchases that we've made but they cannot access the Kindle Owners Lending Library.
I guess that depends on how much you trust your other household members to allow access your AP account so they can benefit from the movies/music/kindle/free delivery etc

As for the monthly prime, it's a good idea, would probably see an uptake in those who don't want to hand over £79 for a year up front, might be more expensive doing it monthly but Amazon would get the punters)
If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.
To be honest, doesn't "one click" ordering do exactly what you want?
