Love Amazon prime videos, I just wish there was an app for non-Fire Android devices.

They do have an app for iPad now, so I'm hoping we'll eventually see one for Android too. |

I doubt we'll see an Android app anytime soon. I don't think Amazon views the iPad as a threat to sales of the Fire, whereas 7" Android tablets are a threat.

They do, but they also want you to buy the Fire; otherwise, they wouldn't make it. Exclusivity of free Prime Instant Video is an incentive to get you to buy the Fire over a better tablet like the Nexus 7.

I sure wish Amazon streaming would have Closed Captioning. I am severely hearing impaired and need this feature. Even my husband who has normal hearing has a hard time understanding dialog sometimes. I have a Roku box and that allows CC on certain Netfix videos.
