Amazon Prime warning?

Hi
With the renewal of my Prime account, I see that you now have to create a Household with another adult and children if I want to share my account.
It used to be that anyone at the same address could share Prime and my wife and two adult 'children' were able to use Prime on this basis up to now.
Please could MSE folk confirm this is a change, and if so it has made the £79 fee more expensive as it has restricted the old sharing system?
TIA

The change was made a year ago but they granfathered existing accounts until they were renewed http://www.expertreviews.co.uk/technology/1403700/amazon-just-made-it-harder-to-share-your-prime-benefits0
