Clearly I am not alone in this view as Amazon have now upped the content of Prime membership allowing you to borrow a Kindle book and have access to Prime Instant Video, Amazon's video streaming service.
The streaming service offers a lot of titles already available from Sky, but a number of interesting ones that are not including Breaking Bad, Copper (C19th New York police drama), Hell on Wheels (shown on one of ITV's satellite channels but I missed series one) and Vikings.
Vikings is now on season two but as this had only been shown on Netflix previously I resigned myself to not seeing it for some time. I watched episode one last night and enjoyed it, not as stylised in the manner of Spartacus which I had assumed it would be, it may well inspire me to finish those Dux Bellorum Saxons that are sat undercoated on the workbench!
Vikings is exclusive to Amazon Instant (formerly LoveFilm).
ReplyDeleteBe careful though, I'm not sure how it works during your free trial, but not all the movies/shows are included in the Prime package.
Some even Prime members have to pay rental/purchase costs to see which can be a bit annoying. Although I am tempted to cough up the £3 or whatever to see The Keep as it's impossible to find anywhere else ;-)
