If you are an Amazon Prime member, are you using the Prime Video benefit?

Whether you started using Prime Video because of ‘The Boys’ or ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty,’ or you haven’t check the streamer out at all, we want to know.

With a background in sports and entertainment reporting, he’s covered everything from Broadway to college football. He cut the cord in 2014 and has a sharp eye for streaming trends and a soft spot for Hallmark movies.

There are an estimated 220 million Amazon Prime members around the world. The giant e-retailer has attracted a massive subscriber base because of the low everyday prices, free delivery, and regular deals. However, from a streaming perspective, there is one Prime perk that we here at The Streamable think sets the otherwise shopping-focused membership apart from the rest: Prime Video. With nearly 28,000 titles on the platform, including roughly 450 original series, Prime Video is a massive benefit for those who otherwise sign up for Amazon Prime for the free shipping. So, if you are an Amazon Prime member, we want to know whether or not you are taking advantage of Prime Video, and if so, what got you to check it out.

From superhero fare like “The Boys” and “Invincible” to romantic dramas like “The Summer I Turned Pretty” and “Daisy Jones & the Six” to fantasy series like “The Wheel of Time” and “Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” to action thrillers like “Reacher” and “Jack Ryan,” Prime Video has tons of series for you to choose from, not to mention the thousands of movies and other shows available to watch on-demand.

Was it one of these shows that drew you to check out Prime Video? Or have you still not explored that specific membership perk? Did you sign up for Amazon Prime specifically because it granted you access to Prime Video? Or, are you still waiting for something compelling to dive into its streaming offerings?
