Prime Video offers a handful of bundle and plan options for subscribers. For the best deal, you’ll want to get Prime Video as part of an Amazon Prime membership, which includes free shipping and a bounty of other bonus add-ons.
Like other major streamers, Amazon also has ad-free plans for an additional $2.99 monthly fee. We’re staunchly against this trend, but at the very least, Prime Video’s ad breaks aren’t overly obnoxious and don’t take long to get past. Plus, all live broadcasts include the usual ad breaks, regardless of whether you have an ad-free plan.
