How Does Amazon Prime Video Work?

 

Welcome back guys, so today on this video we are talking about Amazon, and more specifically we're going to talk about how does amazon prime video work. So let's go ahead and get started. So first off, if you're not familiar with Amazon. Basically it is one of the largest, if not the largest company in the US, actually I think they're a global company, if you know, be sure to leave me a comment below, but they are an e commerce retail giant, so if you want to order something online, they usually have shipped to you pretty quick. you can usually get up by next day sometimes two days depending on what type of service you have, but we're not going to worry about that, basically what we're going to talk about is how amazon prime video work, so I actually have an extra monthly fee through Amazon, that I pay, and I believe it's around $12, or $13. And what that allows me to do is get access to amazon prime. So amazon prime. What that means is I get free shipping.

When I order something through Amazon for most products that they sell on there. So if I need to buy some deodorant, or a toothbrush or a shirt or something like that, rather than waiting five days, I get priority when I'm shipping through Amazon which is pretty nice. Also I don't need to pay for shipping, which is really awesome, but there's also a lot of different benefits that you get with Amazon Prime, be sure to check the video description. I'll try to leave a referral link there, sometimes they run promotions where if you sign up for Amazon Prime through my link, you get a little something extra and so do I. One of the benefits that you get with Amazon prime is amazon prime video so amazon prime video is its own independent app, it is different, so you can easily go to the App Store or Google Play and download this. Here's the app, prime video that's what it looks like the same thing you want to type in when you go to the Apple App Store. 

So what is amazon prime video. Well, I would say that it's a somewhat of a competitor to something like Netflix or Google Play, where you can watch videos, you can pay for videos and have access to download videos, so I'm gonna go ahead and open up my app right now and that way you can see the inside of it. Alright so here we are inside the amazon prime video app. And as you can see the layout is similar to something you would see on Netflix. The only difference is that I can see is that the access to different types of videos is going to be much more options inside Netflix. However, if you don't want a lot of TV or movies like me amazon prime is a pretty good choice.

And here's why. Many of the older films or older TV shows are already included so you don't need to pay extra. And the nice thing about amazon prime video is you can actually download some of these videos so if I'm going to be hopping on a plane for let's say two or three hours, what I'll do is usually download a couple of episodes of one of these shows that I've never seen or maybe a movie, and that way it's stored on my phone drive, and I don't need access to the Wi Fi, because if you've ever been on a plane and purchase Wi Fi, it's usually around $25 which is pretty expensive, so this way you just have access to those without using the Wi Fi. So let me go ahead and click there, what you want to do is look at the bottom menu and where it says downloads click there, so as you can see I don't have any videos downloaded as of right now, inside my drive, I did previously but I deleted them because when you have them stored in your downloads here, they do take up your phone memory so just be aware of that.

And if you want to download one here's what you need to do, you just click right here on the search bar and then look for a show that you want to watch or a movie, so we'll click on white chicks. Alright so now you can see white chicks as they're on the top, and since it's not listed as Prime right here, then you cannot download it, you would need to pay for that. So if you want to filter the results by Prime or what's included.

Just look for this blue symbol right here. so we'll go ahead and click on one that has the blue, so this movie right here superstar will click there 1999, and you can go ahead and click Watch now and it's going to stream it so that's pretty cool. But again if you're going to be hopping on a plane or going on a trip, what you can do is click download, then you can choose to be notified when the download is complete, I'm going to say No thanks. And as you can see it's loading right now. So there you have it. That is how amazon prime video works. If you have any other questions be sure to leave me a comment below I'll do my best to try to answer them.
