The Full Star Trek Franchise at Amazon Prime

Post by Lord MJ »

All five live action series is now available for streaming if you have an Amazon Prime account. I just pulled up an episode a couple minutes ago and it works great!

And watching it on my Asus Transformer, I can HDMI out to my TV set. Woot Woot (now officially a part of the English language).

An addon. I believe you can get a free 30 day trial of the service.

Also, I believe that only the flash site is available at this time. And they don't have an app for amazon prime movies, so people with IOS devices may not be able to see it.

It also appears that only the Enterprise shows are in HD.

And this surprises you, why, exactly? ENT was the only ST series released after HD became widely available.

Thanks for the heads up. I'd always considered a Prime membership with all the shopping I do. This clinched it.

TOS was recently redone with new effects and blown out color saturation in high-def, so that ought to be available as HD as well.
