Amazon Prime TV

For those of you who have Amazon Prime TV when you watch a Movie listed under Showtime or Starz does that cost extra. Or any of the ones listed as add subscriptions.
This is all knew to us and uncertain on just clicking on things.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

    Exactly. We've had Prime for a number of years and have been really pleased with it. On my Amazon screen you can select "Prime" and it will only display shows/movies that are included for free.

  • Those are add on subscriptions and usually run around $5 to $9 each per month after a free trial period. Not too bad if you don't have cable TV, but have a broad band internet connection. Probably easier to tailor it to your specific needs over the cable/satellite packages.
