Just hours after the new Apple TV is announced, Amazon started offering 99-cent TV show purchases. Note that Apple's offering rentals and Amazon's offering purchases.
This is great news for me since I'm a big fan of Amazon Video on Demand -- just watched Fringe (great show!) few hours ago.
I must say that the prices are getting better with the competition. On Amazon, HD shows that used to cost $2.99 per episode are now 99-cents -- I'm referring to shows like Lost, Glee, Grey's Anatomy, etc. The HD resolution is 720p which is really good, and streaming is pretty smooth. I'm very impressed. Downside is the service is only available to US residents, but I've a purchase guide for those overseas.
Interestingly, there are also anime titles on Amazon as well. Gurren Lagann, Ghost in the Shell, Naruto, Fullmetal Alchemist, Bleach, Samurai Champloo, SlamDunk (this is old but good!) and whole lot of other lesser know and maybe even silly titles. I just hope the distributors, especially FUNimation can speed up the release of newer anime titles.
What about you? Do you still buy discs or switching to digital streaming?
