As far as I've read and understand, Apple isn't preventing Amazon from releasing a video streaming app on the AppleTV. Amazon is the one that has been playing hard ball, removing other streaming devices from their store and not releasing a video app (just like they have on iOS) for AppleTV. edit: I should add that I believe the reason Amazon isn't releasing on AppleTV is that Apple won't allow people to subscribe for Prime via the App without requiring their 30% cut. All the other streaming services (and there are dozens if not hundreds) on AppleTV require users to subscribe via means outside of the AppleTV app itself.
