I would say it probably has fewer movies, but it's selection is more mainstream. However it's model is quite different from netflix's (except if you have a paid for Prime account, with some titles).



I do have Prime account. Does it mean i get free streaming? I couldnt figure from reading.


The free prime streaming is only a subset of their catalog. It's also confusing. You'll click through to a movie and it will give you options to buy, rent in HD or stream with prime for free.


If you've paid for the account (in other words, it's not a free Amazon Student, or Amazon Mom account), then some of the titles will be available for free streaming.

Thanks for the link. I've had prime account for over a year, and I am discovering there were free movies.
