Recently the Roku Amazon Video app was updated and now when you look at older shows, such as the 1970 Dragnet, the classic police drama, is clearly listed for $1 per episode. However, when you look at the episodes you are unable to buy any Dragnet episode for $1.
If Amazon does start selling older episodes for just $1 that would help them corner a market that seems stuck at $1.99 and help Amazon stand out. This would mean Amazon would be your place for premium subscriptions, such as Starz and Showtime with live TV, and even old episodes for just a dollar.
We will update this post as we learn more but keep an eye open for a big announcement from Amazon in June.
