Amazon Instant Video

I’m currently in America for work. I bought some stuff from Amazon, and they offered me a free Amazon Prime trial, which I can cancel within the first month for no charge. I’ve been curious about Amazon Prime Instant Video for a while, so decided to check it out.

They have some great videos up there! I checked out “Bigger, Faster, Stronger*” yesterday, and “Between the Folds” today. They are both great documentaries. Bigger, Faster, Stronger* is about steroid use (in sports and elsewhere) while Between the Folds is about origami. I particularly recommend the origami documentary for anyone interested in science, art, and the strange intersection between them.

I’m pretty impressed with the selection (there are a lot more interesting things that I would like to watch) and the process has just worked without a hitch for me. I won’t keep the Prime membership in America because I live in Japan, and can’t take advantage of the streaming there (as far as I know) but if I lived in the US I would definitely pony up for prime and make great use of this feature.

Since I work at Amazon, this might come off as blatant advertising, but really I don’t think you can blame me too much. 😉
