Amazon Takes On Netflix With New Standalone Streaming Service

Amazon boasts an increasingly impressive roster of content in its video service, with high-budget original shows like "The Man In The High Castle" and the forthcoming show by the "Top Gear" team.

But Netflix is a formidable opponent: In a recent Morgan Stanley poll, 29% of people surveyed said that Netflix has the best original content--beating HBO for the first time, and trouncing Amazon Prime, which just 5% said had the best material. Netflix also has the most loyal subscribers of all its competitors, according to research from Parks Associates.
