Amazon has announced the end of its Unbox service and the birth of the new Amazon Video on Demand.
The new, updated service will allow users to watch ad-supported movies and television episodes on their TVs and PCs.
Users have the option to stream content on their PC or Mac, use media hubs with Web browsers or if you are a Sony Bravia HDTV owner, using the Bravia Internet Link.
Movie rentals cost between $3 and $4 USD and to purchase the movie with no ads is $10-15 USD depending on how new the film is. All TV episodes cost $1.99 but you may save money if you purchase or rent a whole season.
Roy Price, director of Amazon VOD, added that Unbox users had requested the ability to watch movies instantly via streaming. "We're continuing to create new, convenient ways for our customers to watch digital movies and TV shows,” Price said.
