I was surprised that Prime is ranked 3rd according to 2022 data from Statista, I almost never watch anything on it but watch several channels through it and wonder if that counts towards their stats.

- BoxFour 3y agoI had a similar curiosity and just inquired about it at work. It turns out there's quite a bit of children's programming (possibly exclusively) available on Prime Video, which could be at least one reason for its popularity among families.
- bombcar 3y agoIt’s huge but getting worse. There used to be large swaths available on Prime but it seems reduced, and you might as well just watch it on YouTube directly.
- happytoexplain 3y agoIf I get in mind to watch a movie or show that's not a popular current series, I find most of the time that only prime has it, or prime and some streaming service that I'm not going to add to my stack of subscriptions just for one movie/show, especially because nowadays thanks to my experience with Hulu, it takes a little research to tell if I'm going to get ads even if I pay for the service, and I'd rather not spend that time.

- pasc1878 3y agoMany Prime users will have it for the delivery options (and the black pattern they got to buy it). Once you have that the video streaming is there so why not use it.
