You Can Finally Get Amazon Prime Videos on Your Android Phone or Tablet

Wow, I can’t believe it’s taken this long to finally get Prime instant videos on Android devices. It’s a good start, but personally I’d rather have seen a dedicated video app just for Prime instead an add-on to the shopping app. Anyway, yes it’s nice now to be able to access my Amazon Prime Instant Videos on my Android devices, but I have to wonder what too so long. Oh and as a bonus I guess, you can get 5gb of photo storage as well on Amazon Cloud Drive.
