Im trying to join Amazon instant video but dont want to pay the £79 they want for a year but would like to pay monthly.

But have they now stopped the monthly plan as i can not see it anywhere on there website.

If anyone has a link to the monthly part could you please leave a link please.

It could be that it has stopped. The link below is where it used to be, but it's not there anymore.

That said, I have seen them shift it around before, and after writing to them, they gave me the new link in the past. I suggest you write to their support and find out. If there is a new link, let us know

Sign up to the free 30 trial then cancel, they will give you offers and it is normally the £5.99pm sub.

It's here as it always is - you just have to find the "Looking For Amazon Instant Video?" tiny text that they seem to hide on purpose.

Amazon is trying to get more customers to sign up to their Amazon Prime at a cost of £79 a year. There has already been a lot of concern about their style of marketing in the major press. Pushing their luck methinks.

Typical Amazon, i left their Prime service due to the Video stuff. I mean, who pays £79 a year to access video content which is behind a 2nd paywall?.

What is this second paywall you speak of? I see only one.

Chick here

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/prime/pi...ime_join#lfpiv

then click the radio button next to "Prime Instant Video" then click "Start you Prime Instant Video Membership"...

Prime Instant Video is £5.99/month (£71.88/year). You can cancel your membership at any time.

Hi,

I'm currently contemplating buying some US series from Amazon Instant Video; however, I'm not sure how I would go about saving them. Does anybody know whether there is a way of saving the series onto a disk just in case my computer went stupid and lost all the files? A lot the US series that I used to watch on Sky have not been made available on DVD and a UK network hasn't picked them up, so it is the only way for me to continue watching them.

Many thanks.

They are stored in the cloud so as long as Amazon exist they are always available
