Amazon has a pretty interesting business model in that they generally don't charge for each of their services. Prime Video, Prime Music, etc are all bundled up under Prime, so they don't have to be super successful individually, they just have to be seen by the customer as adding value. They can experiment with all sorts of little niche services, and few remember or even know if a particular experiment is successful or not.
