Not sure about the rules regarding streaming from multiple locations, though.

"You can stream up to two titles at the same time using the same Amazon.com account. You can stream the same title to no more than one device at a time."

Amazon is now putting pop-ups on the screen during the ending credits, even on movies you're paying separately to buy or rent! My plans for getting Prime are off now, and I won't use them for rentals anymore.

Pop-ups are on PC only? But the screen at least stays full-size unlike at the end of Netflix titles?
Yeah, Amazon gets carried away with ads, IMDB, too. It's why I moved to Apple and iTunes for music and videos.

It was on my Roku 1, which so far has been showing Netflix with no interruptions. It doesn't seem Netflix is able to update that model any further, thankfully- I get 5.1 audio with the best possible picture quality which is all that matters. I was going to get Amazon Prime but not now- they'll be getting a letter from me though.

It would really, really, really behoove Amazon to join the other streaming providers and put a feature into their damn app which allowed me to case whatever I wanted to watch, especially since it effectively renders my Chromecast worthless, and my BD player's version of the setup sucks. Join the 21st century, boys.

Assuming case is autocorrect for choose... nope, still didn't make sense.

Other streaming apps allow me to select what I want to watch on the iPhone app and send it to the streaming device, BD player, Smart TV, or Chromecast stick. Amazon does not. Accursed autocorrect. The interface for Amazon on my BD player sucks like an industrial carpet cleaner and is not set up the same way it is everything else for some reason, so it would be useful.

Yes. Hulu, Netflix, and even YouTube after pairing let me cast content to my BD player, Smart TV, and Chromecast stick. Amazon doesn't. And like I said, it especially irritating since the setup on my Song for AIV is really stupid.
