Nice to have some competition in this dept.

Free/cheap shipping might be the deal breaker for Netflix once Amazon gets more titles. I don't order much from Amazon, but if I'm going to shell out $80/year to stream video...I might as well get a little bonus.

I agree!
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.

I already do the $80/yr just to get free 2nd day, air and next day for $3.99.  It's great..  It doesn't take many orders with regular shipping to cover the cost.  You can also use prime to ship stuff to friends and family.

Amazon not only needs better different titles, but HD streaming to devices and better quality all around.

They advertise HD streaming to devices.  Are you saying they don't have it?

on AVS I've not read any reports of HD-like quality for the streaming on devices.  And there are only a couple that have it right now anyway - Roku, and maybe Boxee?
