Quality Content on Amazon Video
You can either rent or purchase videos and for Amazon Prime members, there are selected titles which can be exclusively viewed by Prime members or Prime Video members.
There is also a lot of exclusive content to watch thanks to special deals Amazon has made to increase the variety, offers and the whole video service in general. In the United States for example, Amazon made a multi-year licensing deal with HBO.
Amazon Video was launched on 7 September 2006 as “Amazon Unbox” in the US. Since then this service has grown a lot and thanks to Prime and the library getting bigger and bigger it has become a huge platform for video on demand.
LoveFilm was added
In 2011, LoveFilm was added to Amazon Video and because of that, three years later Prime Video became a part of Amazon Prime in the UK, in Germany and in Austria.
