This is not news--they have had exactly this model for a few years. If you go to their website, you can stream 10,000+ for free w/ Prime, or many more for cost on the Amazon Instant Video service. Really new releases run about $2-4. I've enjoyed it; it has content almost equivalent to Netflix for Prime, and content similar to the Redboxes for AIV. Only, no trip to the Redbox with the all-too-common "they're out of copies" experience.
