Interesting, but I wonder if those of us who are on a trial of Prime (even though mine is extended through July at least) would qualify, or if you actually had to have paid for Prime?

I guess my concern is that Prime would go up in price.

Prime is less than $7/month -unlimited 2 day shipping AND steaming video would be awesome, well worth it!

Think amazon is such a juggernaught it should frighten me but as a consumer I do love it.

I totally agree with both points. Inexpensive considering it would be like Neflix plus Prime. Scary because the amazon.com takeover of the world continues...

Amazon is huge. I totally agree with that sentiment, but I love it anyway. I order almost everything from Amazon because it is so convenient and I have been a Prime member for a few years. Now with Amazon Mom my love for Amazon has increased even more. I cannot believe the deal I get on diapers. :heartbeat:

The streaming would be really cool, but I hope it will be like Netflix, where you can access it from the PS3 and other units like that to be viewed on the TV.
