Shows up on mine - but links to standard movies (I think).

I'll check when I get home. I've been waiting for this!
However, the last few times I've tried to browse the service, my TiVo has hung up, requiring a reboot. I've never had to reboot a TiVo in all the years I've owned one. Anyone else having this issue?

Does Amazon have a monthly subscription like Netflix or is it pay per movie? I liked the Netflix deal better!

This is further proof, in my opinion, that downloads/streaming wont be able to take over the majority of movie watching/buying/renting. There are just too many options, too many companies all competing for us to do the same thing. Sometimes having too many options can be a bad thing, but this is just my opinion.
