Didn't they launch this last year? http://www.informationweek.com/cloud/cloud-storage/amazon-prime-gains-unlimited-photo-storage-with-caveats/d/d-id/1317235 ht

  I guess nobody paid attention last time. It's a classic trick to launch over and over again until someone cares to give two cents.
  • dkrich 11y ago
    Well to be fair, I don't see anywhere in the page itself indicating that this is a new launch, just the HN title.
• ctomaybe 11y ago
  I was going to say... we were launching it just after I left the team last year!

  Not 100% sure but I think the last time around it was announced as free with prime - https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/primephotos https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/primephotos ? This time around it looks like a standalone product.

  Amazon relaunches the same products all the time. It's a soft launch until it gains traction or dies.

    nothing was relaunched, it's just a landing page. i'm not sure why this is on HN.
    • joeblau 11y ago
      Ah. The product I worked at at Amazon had a similar landing page to it's original landing page a year prior so that's why I was thinking it might be a soft relaunch. Amazon might have email blasted a ton of current customers with an offer which is why it resurfaced. I didn't know Amazon already offered this service; I'm only familiar with Amazon Cloud Drive.

  Huh, that's weird. We'll take "launches" out of the title.
