Just a heads up to people here--I know a lot of us have Prime memberships, so I thought I would pass it along. If this is already posted somewhere, mods please delete, thanks.

Your Excellency, you're the best! I just saved a whole bunch of money buying a PS3 for the house already with the Prime Shipping and of course no sales tax. Now I get to watch movies for free (legally, to boot?)
(I got the 160GB version, plus a 500GB drive as it doesn't void the warranty....not to mention a $50 promotional credit.......) Way cheaper than buying the 320GB bundle with the Move [I can always get Move later...]

So mad right now.....does Amazon stream through the PlayStation 3? If it does/can I might bite the bullet one day and pay Amazon then cut the cord.........keep just Broadband. -

This is still good for folks that do pay for Prime. We're just mad (and not at you, no worries) that us colleges kids [lol] who got Prime can't get this for free too....lmao.
Thread is still good if one wants to pay for Prime and have an alternative to Netflix. -

Amazon does not currently support Xbox360/PS3 streaming although there are a few workarounds for the Xbox. I personally just ran a DVI-HDMI cable from one of my computers to the television and stream it that way. -
Optionsmsteinhilber Member Posts: 1,480 ■■■■■■■■□□Checked it out, the TV show selection is a bit sparse though I suppose it's a newer offering and being that I had my Prime account before this I can't complain since I wasn't ever expecting this anyways
