Amazon Prime Video drops Dolby Vision and Atmos unless you pay extra::Amazon Prime Video has removed Dolby Vision HDR, and Atmos surround sound, unless you pay an extra $2.99 a month for its new ad-free option. The company has confirmed the move.
Who pays for prime video? Literally the worst selection there is
Disagree, prime has a lot of the more niche and interesting shows and movies. Tons of Indy films you can’t find elsewhere like Coherence, a great movie I would never have seen if not for Prime suggesting it.
I have only ever used prime as a last resort. I don’t watch much TV but what’s available through prime is usually pretty bad IMHO. I would go as far as to say if someone goes to prime to watch things like rings of power then they probably have bad taste.
it has the worst UX in the world where you search for a film, see they have it, then see you have to subscribe to some other shitty service to watch
Mark my words…Amazon is going to experiment with tiering off Prime programs like cable. Want “The Boys?” or “Invincible?” That’s the extra tier.
Probably. The industry is still trying to figure out pricing, and the cost of making content isn’t matching the cost consumers are willing to pay for it.
no one wants streaming exclusive content, it inherently feels lower quality, plus making it harder to generate a buzz and make the series feel worthwhile or pressing to watch
