I'm certainly glad I can get the student version that is discounted to a reasonable amount. I hope they don't change that...

I order a lot from Amazon, and watch quite a bit of Amazon Prime, even more so since I cut the cable cord permanently. So it's still very worth it for me to keep it even at the new price. As long as most of what I order is still as cheap as I can get it elsewhere, I suspect that will continue to be the case.

You can be. A friend's brother was a student his until the day he died. He had two doctorates and I don't know how many master degrees. He also worked for a University and attended school too.

I believe Amazon has a max of 4 years to get the student discount.

I will be for another half-decade or so, at the very least. By then I hope Amazon is sufficiently defanged or that there is a better alternative... or that I'll be much less of a consumerist than I am now.

Very true, especially so if you attend different institutions. I'm taking 'lifelong learner' somewhat literally.

MGM joins Prime Video and Amazon Studios

Quote:
Amazon and MGM announced that MGM has joined Prime Video and Amazon Studios. The storied, nearly century-old studio—with more than 4,000 film titles, 17,000 TV episodes, 180 Academy Awards, and 100 Emmy Awards—will complement Prime Video and Amazon Studios’ work in delivering a diverse offering of entertainment choices to customers.
Amazon's purchase of MGM set them back a cool $8.5 billion.

Any news on when the content will be available (for free I assume) to Prime members?

I'm looking forward to all the MGM westerns (for my dad).

When Amazon buys Paramount Pictures you can watch the Clint Eastwood musical western Paint Your Wagon.
