Here’s all the news Amazon Prime Video is making this month. 

More Amazon Price Hikes?

Aug 18 — Amazon has just announced they are raising prices on Amazon Music for the second time in less than a year. The service is going up $1.00 per month and includes pre-paid accounts. Amazon is currently the most expensive streaming account to maintain along with the Amazon Prime service. It’s increased prices almost by 25% each year over the past five years. Will Amazon Prime Video be next to splinter and raise prices yet again?
