Jeff Bezo, President AMAZON
Through a video featuring with the protagonists of the automotive show ‘The Grand Tour’, Amazon announced that its ‘Prime Video’ streaming service will be available in more than 200 countries around the world (among which are expected to be Mexico and many of Latin America) from December of this year.
Amazon Prime Video is an integrated service within its Prime subscription plan, which includes faster shipments and other benefits for a periodic fee.
Like Netflix, the company is betting with the production of original content, in addition to obtaining the license of programs and films of different distributors, mainly franchises of regional interest.
In the United States the cost of the Prime plan is around $ 11, a price similar to that handled by Netflix, so competition will be fought, depending on how are those costs in such countries.
