It meant that viewers who didn't live in one of Amazon's supported countries couldn't watch the retail giant's original TV shows and movies without having to resort to alternative means. With Jeremy Clarkson and co. now on the service following the big-budget debut of The Grand Tour, Amazon has decided to fully engage Netflix and spin out its streaming service, today launching Prime Video in "200 countries and territories" around the world with a low introductory price of $3/€3 per month.
As a standalone service, Prime Video takes the experience that Prime customers are used to and places much of it on a separate website. Subscribers can watch TV shows and movies in English, with many subtitled and dubbed in French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. Customers who are subscribed to Prime in Belgium, Canada, France, India, Italy and Spain will immediately get access to Prime Video from today, with all content available via the Prime Video iOS, Android and smart TV apps.
