Amazon Takes On Netflix With $8.99 Monthly Video Streaming Service

Netflix is by far the biggest online streaming video service. Last week, researcher Parks Associates estimated that about half of all U.S. households with a broadband Internet connection subscribed to Netflix at the end of 2015, while only about one-quarter report having a subscription to Amazon so that they can stream video. (Amazon itself doesn’t disclose the number of people who subscribe to Prime or who use Prime Video regularly.)
