Amazon Prime Video to include advertisements starting 17th June 2025 | Rs. 699 per year / Rs. 129 per month extra for ad-free

[iDJ]

I am on 1499 premium plan so lets if ad comes while streaming post June 17.
and @iDJ I never saw 999 additional for ad-free during live matches, I am on 1499 plan.

I am saying that they need to offer a premium tier plan for sports viewers.

Hotstar?

But it is not doable at 1499.

If you want ad-free Sports then the price would be close to 3K or 4.5K INR yearly.

Amazon Prime Video will show limited ads starting June 17, 2025. However, customers can opt for a new ad-free option by paying an additional Rs. 699 per year.

He is bluffing. I have prime yearly sub and I have received the same mail. Everyone is getting the mail.

I think who have taken amazon shopping edition membership they did not get this mail. I did not get this mail because I have taken shopping edition membership.

Probably because you don't have Prime Video access?

We're looking at a price of ₹2,199 per year. ₹1,499 for a base Amazon Prime Video subscription (which I'm currently paying with my Airtel Broadband plan), and another ₹699 for an ad-free variant. From June 17 onwards, if we take a look at "Which was India's most expensive OTT", Prime Video will be the answer.

This will completely dethrone JioHotstar and Sony LIV (both priced at ₹1,499 per year for the ad-free variant). Because for a yearly OTT subscription, ₹1,499 per year is the highest OTT platforms charge.

Gradually these OTT's would convert to Saas bahu era GEC's ,already their content is rivalling that.And this will only push people towards illegal ways of watching.

 

[Balaji G]

In the starting stage they made us less priced, once we got addicted they are slowly increasing the price.
We left no other option to pay higher prices.
Already Amazon limited the no of screens now ads or price increase is not fair.
Bad move.

Real face of OTT. Imagine what will they do after dth era

Because for a yearly OTT subscription, ₹1,499 per year is the highest OTT platforms charge.

The Netflix single screen Basic plan works out to be ₹2400 a year so the Prime video plan at ₹2200 a year with multi screen streaming will still be cheaper than that.
