So it's basically Netflix, with the exact same shortcomings of Netflix.
One advantage over Netflix: Amazon streaming plays movies on non-Intel (well, G5) Macs, which Netflix won't do because the required version of Silverlight is Intel-only. It never hurts to have one more system that can stream movies, especially since I was paying for Prime anyway.
Of course, this is somewhat offset by the fact that Amazon can't stream through Wii as Netflix does. Oh well.
