Not saying that's a good thing but it [I]will[/I] happen within a week of the first episode.[/QUOTE]
Come on, Top Gear is the only show that I know of that has a site dedicated to pirating it and it alone.. Anyone who thinks the majority of Top Gear viewers aren't watching pirated versions are kidding themselves.

final gear kicked the bucket about a year ago
Another awesome reason for my Prime membership.
[QUOTE=sloppy_joes;48330928]Prime also has 2 day shipping and discounts, plus Amazon is already cheap. Overall prime basically pays for itself.[/QUOTE]
You also get free same-day delivery and one-hour delivery on some items depending on where you live. For shit you can find in a dollar store, fine, but most everything else is simply way cheaper. Plus there are a lot of specialty items that you simply will not find outside of overpriced specialty shops if at all. Oh, and they have dildos - what more could you ask for?

The Top Gear subreddit also kept torrent & Mega links up.
iirc Amazon Prime isn't above selling the air rights to tv stations in countries that don't have it, so people shouldn't worry that much because otherwise they would really miss some really big markets.

Oh. Its funny that it's downing seems to coincide with the time when the BBC started to put it up on iPlayer straight away.
Point still stands though, no other show has attracted its own piracy site.

So, how long till they sell the rights to the BBC? Or another UK network that will run it at the same time as Top Gear.
Apparently Andy Wilman the director from Top Gear is also joining them.

They made Clarkson look like he's having a stroke by flipping the image.

There we go.
Better than ITV and Channel 4 who would've interfered and tried too hard to make it stand out as their own thing.
But clearly Amazon were offering the big dolla because Netflix has the audience and best quality control.
I've had prime for two years, the first year was free because i'm a #student. The 2nd year was a mistake for auto renewal. However £40 for the one day delivery is great and 100% worth it.
Amazon Video is... ok, never used it
Amazon Music isn't too great, app is a bit meh and music collection isn't that great
Now [I]Top Gear[/I] is now on here it suddenly makes it
Never quite understood the fasciation with Top Gear myself. But all the same good to have them back together on the same show as one another.
[QUOTE=Headhumpy;48330558]Hell yes, I accidentally signed up for a year of Amazon Prime, I was on the fence whether or not to continue for another year but this seals the deal.
Free one-day delivery is pretty sweet as well.[/QUOTE]
Its free two-day shipping. One day shipping is like $3.99 USD per item.
[QUOTE=Rich209;48338682]Its free two-day shipping. One day shipping is like $3.99 USD per item.[/QUOTE]
no we get unlimited one day delivery in the uk
[QUOTE=Scot;48330382]Netflix isn't available in all countries.[/QUOTE]
Netflix is available in very many countries

But seriously this is incredibly shitty news.
Whatever, I guess they want people to pirate their new show.
I only pay 29€ a year for Prime because I'm a student, it's great here in Germany. Free one-day shipping (not guaranteed but it's on time if you order in time) and the selection of amazon prime video is not bad either, better than German Netflix in my opinion.
So this is great, as long as it is actually available here.
Got themselves a new company... :v:

Apparently [url=http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/jeremy-clarkson-says-amazon-prime-6174895]the deal[/url] is for 36 episodes over three years. Perhaps three 10-part series and some two-part adventures, mmm?
