Amazon wants to start subscription TV, movie service By Andre Yoskowitz - September 1, 2010 Amazon is in quiet talks with the major media companies in an effort to start a subscription TV and movie service. The service would offer unlimited views of older TV episodes and movies online. Amazon has spoken with Viacom, Time Warner and Sony already. The talks are still young, and the companies seem to be focusing on shows and movies that have already been available on DVD or Blu-ray. Amazon is still in the game, but far behind market leader Apple. Apple has been in negotiations with Disney, Fox and News Corp. to offer rentals of current TV shows for $0.99, a 50 percent drop from current prices. The shows can be watched for up to 48 hours after purchase. |
