[QUOTE]After first launching on the PS3, Amazon’s Netflix clone is making its way to the Xbox 360. The Amazon Instant Video app launched today over Xbox Live, allowing customers to have instant access to the library of movies and TV shows they’ve already purchased from Amazon, as well as the full span of streaming videos available to Amazon Prime members.
Of course Amazon Instant Video doesn’t have the traction that Netflix does, but customers are quickly [URL="http://www.slashgear.com/xbox-360-adds-amazon-instant-video-29230749/#"]learning[/URL] that for $79 a year, Amazon Prime’s service is not only cheaper than Netflix streaming, but they also get access to all the other Prime benefits including unlimited free two-day shipping, free Kindle book lending, and the ability to share memberships with household members.
It joins several other video apps on Xbox Live. It has been on the PS3 since earlier this year. At E3 next month, it is very possible that it is this kind of content that will be a central focus of Microsoft’s presentation. After all, the Xbox 360 is starting to get stale and in order to keep it relevant, Microsoft has been pushing non-gaming content on the console.

Sounds like a pretty good deal. My main concern is how large the selection is.
Amazon Prime in general is not the greatest choice for movies, I myself only find it useful for the savings it brings on buying items and on shipping.
My Fridge had this app before Xbox did.

Where the fuck do I get a fridge like that? And why the fuck would anyone really want to watch a movie on a fridge?

Well, that's nice, but it'll still rape your Comcast data cap with regular use.

if you ask me i think it's pretty [I]cool[/I]
Yeah, that fridge is awesome.
10 bucks says Amazon Instant video requires XBL gold. While its cool that AIV is going to 360 as well, it might not be good for those with data caps, and most likely people who have the free membership to live.

Of course it requires Gold. You think MS is that stupid to let Silver use it?

If you have a bandwith cap you don't use it, easy enough.
