Once upon a time, streaming via Amazon Prime was only available via a full year’s membership, but that changed in 2016 when Amazon added a monthly subscription option that allowed consumers to only shell out the money from month to month if they didn’t want to pay for an entire year.
It was a convenient option for any who didn’t want to make a year’s commitment of $99 at once.
Amazon has emerged as a big player in the streaming video game, and it recently scored some big wins at the Golden Globes thanks to The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Unfortunately for those monthly subscribers, however, the cost will be increasing in the not-too-distant future.
