There's nothing sneaky or devious about it.
I'm calling sour grapes on all you people who claim every normal, sensible business decision by any successful company is some sort of evil plot.

I intended no belligerence, I'm just disappointed with implementation. I like Amazon's services, I like Google's services. But Amazon, for whatever reasons, has not delivered a good experience of Amazon Instant Video on Android. The iOS app is great, and was from day one. So they know how to do this right.
Maybe it is the best they can do, due to lack of cooperation on the part of Google. And fortunately I have other ways of consuming video from Amazon. I just won't be using this method.
I've used Appstore from day one but over time have used it less and less on my Android devices. I just prefer getting everything from Google Play. It doesn't offer much value for me.
