Amazon Prime News: Here is What’s Coming in August to the Streaming Platform
Amazon Prime has been seen by many as the main competitor to Netflix in the online streaming market. Just Like Netflix, they also produce their own content and provide their subscribers with licensed content for movies and TV shows that are on popular cable networks.
But according to Netflix Life, Amazon's new arrivals for August are going to have something that Netflix does not have any access to: HBO content.
