I've had Amazon Video for a while, but rarely use it. Most of the movies that I view on Amazon Video tends to be old, semi-obscure films that I can't find anywhere else and most of the time, I end up having to rent it rather than it being part of the prime video.
If Amazon wants to compete with Netflix, then they will have to give me a compelling reason to go there first, i.e. a better selection of movies that I actually want to watch. When there is a movie that I feel in the mood for, I normally first check Netflix (i.e. see it as part of my monthly subscription), then iTunes (rental) and finally Amazon Video if I can't find it either place.
