The Wheel of Time, Gen V or even The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power, Prime Video s offers an increasingly extensive and ambitious catalog. If you want to fall for Amazon's video streaming platform, you need to have all the cards in hand.
While Netflix is losing ground, Prime Video is making a place of choice in the hearts of viewers with 26% audience share in the last quarter of 2022 in France (28% for Netflix and 18% for Disney+). If Amazon is taking increasing care of its video streaming platform, with golden partnerships with Ligue 1 and Warner Bros., Prime Video also provides access to a host of services. Which explains part of its success. Indeed, to benefit from Prime Video, you must subscribe to Amazon Prime.
So, thanks to our Prime Video 2023 price guide, you will be able to know everything before you start: services included, price, number of screens, quality, catalog content, etc. You will therefore be able to make an informed choice.
With The Boys, The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power, Orelsan: Never Show That to Anyone or even LOL: who laughs, comes out!, Prime Video offers itself an attractive catalog of original programs.

Despite the commitment, the annual plan allows you to save on your subscription. It is therefore not negligible. In any case, Amazon allows you to benefit from a 30-day free trial. It's always a good idea
But student or not, Prime Video gives you access to the same programs, the same number of screens and the same video quality. So you can enjoy all your programsin Full HD (1080p), some even benefit from Ultra HD (4K) for the greatest pleasure of the eyes.
At less than €7 per month, you can watch your favorite content on 3 screens simultaneously while you can stream the same program on up to two devices at the same time. To watch your favorite series and movies in any situation, you can download and watch them when you are offline.
