I see this when i go to the main screen:

I donā€™t understand itā€¦ Iā€™m already a subscriber to Paramount Plus. Does it just meant accessing these other services via Amazon? Itā€™s not cheaper?

So I can watch Comedy Bang Bang on Prime but itā€™s an AMC plus show but pay for it via Prime?

Is every show and movie from these services on these channels?

Iā€™ve just looked it all up. At least STARZPLAY, MGM, AMC+ and OutTV arenā€™t even available in Australiaā€¦ I think Amazon might be a bit confusedā€¦

Yes they are available.

You just access the content via the Prime Video interface and pay for it via Amazon. Itā€™s not any cheaper as far as I know. All it does is just centralise your billing and access if you want the services they offer

Actually they are through Amazon yeah. So Amazon has just brought these services over? Their individual seperate websites donā€™t even let you sign up to them, let alone say theyā€™re available in Australia.

Yea, they are through Amazon.

Yep itā€™s the first time these channels come to Australia, albeit indirectly.

Is it everything from these channels? Eg it has Paramount Plusā€¦ is it just a selection?

I found Comedy Bang Bang all seasons AMC+ .

Prime Videoā€™s mobile app is slightly better, and itā€™s available in places the Paramount+ app isnā€™t (PS4). Going to move my sub over to Amazon.

This was 2017

So does this mean AMC stuff isnā€™t going to Amazon now ?

The series will premiere on ITV in the U.K., and will be available on Amazon Prime Video in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Nordics, and Sub-Saharan Africa.

Netflix puts their price up and Amazon still is $59 a year . Bargain.

but most of Amazon Primeā€™s catalogue for that price is very basic, apart from Amazon Originals they only have a tiny amount of Hollywood movies, lots of cheaply acquired content, and lots of Indian movies.

and the small amount of Hollywood movies they have they either delete or make available at additional cost after six months.
