Has anyone spent any time exploring Amazon's new Prime music service? I've only spent 5 minutes on the site, but it might lead to me canceling my Pandora account from what I see....

Last night was the first night I finally checked out Amazon Prime's movie section. I was not impressed that I had to pay extra to watch movies. That won't ever get used by me.

That won't ever get used by me. It depends on the movie you want to watch. Amazon Prime has a movie library that rivals Netflix in size and it's included with your Prime account for $79 a year. Then they also have the movies that you have to "pay extra" for. So IMO it's much better than Netflix because you have the unlimited free movies, but you also have an even larger collection of movies available to rent or buy. It's sort of like Netflix and Vudu rolled up into one. I have always ordered a bunch off of Amazon so I signed up for Prime just to get the free 2 day shipping before they even offered the free movies thru Prime so it's a win win for me atleast. YMMV

Hmm. It's $99 now. Mine just auto renewed.
I was browsing the movies using the built in app in my OPPO blu-ray player. So far, 100% of the ones I looked at charged around $5 to watch. I haven't seen any free ones yet. Edited by CatBrat (06/17/14 04:44 PM)

I have the 103 and my only complaint is that it doesn't have Amazon. Since I don't have the app you are using I can't give exact directions, but on the Amazon app on my other bluray player you can select Prime from the menu and then it only shows the free movies instead of one's that you have to rent/buy. It's the same on the computer. You can go to Amazon Instant Video which shows all movies available or you can click the link for Prime instant video and only see movies/TV shows that are free through Prime.

Amazon.com Prime Movies Not sure what the interface is like on your OPPO, but this is where you'd find them on the website. You would click "Watch Now" instead of clicking one of the buying options. |

Bummer....
