This month Amazon has started testing a new monthly subscription to its Prime members service, as an alternative to the $79 a year cost. The new monthly subscription of just $7.99 now makes Amazon more competitive to the likes of Netflix and Hulu who also offer monthly subscriptions.
However the new monthly subscription plan does cost an additional $16.88 when compared to paying up front for a full year of the Prime service.
Amazon Prime members receive the following : FREE Two-Day Shipping on millions of items, no minimum order size, unlimited instant streaming of thousands of movies and TV shows with Prime Instant Videos, and a Kindle book to borrow for free each month from the Kindle Owners’ Lending Library.
For more information jump over to the Amazon website for details and the option to try the Amazon Prime service for free for 30 days.
