Amazon has “tens of millions” of Amazon Prime members who get video streaming as part of their shopping and free-shipping subscriptions. Content from these providers can be found now on Amazon Video. Amazon already offers movies and television programs over the Internet—including its own original productions—to compete with Netflix Inc. HowStuffWorks posts videos regularly on YouTube and has more than 450,000 people who follow its channel on the video site. Another option: Provide videos to Amazon Prime members and get royalty payments based on how many times the content is streamed, or as part of an add-on subscription.
