Shocking. Prime doesn't put out 1/10 the content. It has to be that they are counting things like rentals and purchases.I remember a short time ago it looked like nobody was going to overtake Netflix.
Prime Video Overtakes Netflix As Top US Streaming Service
Netflix has been No. 1 since at least 2019.
It's purely based on number of subscribers as of September of 2022.
So if someone subscribes to Amazon Prime, they are a subscriber regardless of if they watch or not?
Yep.
So very misleading then.
Yep and it's genius. Besides I doubt very many people don't use Amazon video if it comes with their Prime subscription if that is where you are going. Also, you can get Video without Prime. Not everybody that has a Video subscription has Prime either. Lots of people don't want to pay for Amazon Prime. Keep in mind Amazon's shopping numbers have taken a significant hit since the restrictions of Covid have been lifted yet their subscribers' numbers still grew. It's why Amazon is laying of 18,000 people. So, doesn't sound like it could be any significant number of people not utilizing the service.
I would look at streaming hours to judge better.
Well we know their LOR show was a massive hit but Netflix has more original content so I would expect they would dominate hours. Having said that? The article isn't about hours. It's subscriptions. I am sure Amazon is happy with the monthly subscription numbers which pay the bills. Netflix is struggling in that department and it's why they have become the new FOX TV of cancelling shows.
I have Paramount+ Watch it more than Prime
Paramount Plus’ rise is all about the Taylor Sheridanverse.
I watch quite a bit of Paramount as well.
Evidently, HALO was the most watched show on Paramount+ beating out all of the Yellowstone shows. I also checked my queue and I am watching more shows there than I thought. If I add HALO, all the Star Trek shows, Ghosts, and Evil…I guess that’s more than I thought.
Ghosts is available for free on network TV. I was pissed they moved Evil there, but I binged it when I temporarily got Paramount +.
Maybe Halo got better, but I couldn't even make it through an episode before I had to turn it off. It is rare that I can't even make it a few episodes in on a new show.
I watched it for pure nostalgia of the original game. There were a ton of references throughout even though this was a different timeline.
Halo didn't get better. It started off as pure trash and got considerably worse every episode. It's an embarrassment to humanity.
You talking about Halo or Willow? Because that description is good for that show too.
Haha.
I was talking about Halo, but it applies to Willow as well (and others).
(I knew you were talking about Halo -- it was a facetious question)
It's not IMO. Why? Willow to me was a major film that had much higher expectations for me. HALO is one of many GAME adaptations that have not had a good track record. There is some bad with HALO but IMO, there was also some cool stuff in it as well. I found my staff snapping like a rubber band between the cool and the bad on that show. To me it sort of had the Michael Bay Transformers type response by audiences. Meaning that it was still a big hit besides the major flaws.(I knew you were talking about Halo -- it was a facetious question)
I'm actually surprised that Halo would be mentioned in the same breath as Willow. I haven't seen Halo yet, so hearing that it's on par with Willow is pretty disappointing to say the least.
