Spoke through chat with amazon, they could not verify that any of the information,  but told me to check the website for announcement tomorrow if was true lol

Yep, I finally got to watch The Wire, Luther, etc and rewatch Rome !!!

 

On topic, does this work on new subscriptions only ?  Is there a way to pay $72 now and credit it to my November renewal ?

...and early access to Amazon exclusive products.

If you have a PS4 free streaming of true HD 1080P Movies, and special coupons and extra discounts on subscribe and save, cheapest way to get my Braun razor cleaner.

 

I am hoping to add a year even though I am not up for renewal.

It mostly is (fast and "free"), but it also includes some free audio/movie offers.

so I received an email from amazon the chat rep told me now it is in fact real.

I let my Prime membership lapse in December and have been missing the content more than the free shipping.

Has anyone tried this today ? I could not find option to renew since my renewal month is November

Questions about video content.

 

1) Can I run it through Google Chromecast or will it only run through their new Firestick?

 

2) How good is the content vs. Netflix which I already have.

 

3)  Is content free?  Pay?  Both depending on how new it is?
