Could somebody explain about Amazon Instant View?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

OK, I understand that paying for Amazon Prime allows for unlimited viewing of at least Amazon Prime videos. Does it allow for unlimited instant viewing of other videos on the Amazon site as well?

If you don't have Amazon Prime, does that mean you essentially have pay-per-view on the Amazon website? If you "buy" an episode or season, do you download it, as with iTunes, or do you "possess" it for just a limited time?

Thanks. The information on the website is not clear, somehow.

1. Wait - what?

I don't understand what your question is.

The Amazon Unbox format was discontinued, which was the format where you'd download the actual film and watch it within a certain timeframe on any media viewer you had.

NOW, you watch as streaming, like on Netflix. Some title are available to Amazon Prime as part of the annual Prime fee; other titles, like for example, Clash of the Titans, are pay-per-view.

2. OK, here's my question stated in different terms:

If you buy Amazon Prime, you get to see the videos designated as Amazon Prime videos for no extra charge.

However, you have to pay per view for all the others.

Correct?
