Total tangent. Amazon Prime's video library here in Australia disapointed me to such an extend that I unsubscribed within minutes of subscribing.

The dashboard has recommendations. In those recommendations, on this single page, Twilight appeared 26 (TWENTY SIX) times.

Any other page I'd go to would also have several instances of it recommending me a Twilight movie. I literally couldn't find enough decent movies because almost every other movie was from that series.

It was the shortest lived account I've ever owned.

Apologies for the rant. Am disappointed.

You may be surprised to know that early prime adopters in India paid as less as $4 yearly (I renew at that amount, this includes prime shipping and music as well).

So interestingly, India is a place where acquiring content is relatively easy because the money made from licensing movies for TV (after it is out of cinemas) in India is a lot lesser than the rest of the world. So it's a new income source for production houses with tons of old content and Amazon has jumped at that, making their content appeal to masses in India.

Along with that they've also invested money in creating content specifically for India which isn't comparable to Netflix but good quality sincere efforts nonetheless.

The Indian film industry is ready for online and has welcomed all players. A lot of Indian media houses and production houses are rolling out their own online platforms with subscriptions as well.
