Hmmm… last I checked (a few weeks ago) DS’s student Prim account was still fine. I thought they said as long as the student had an “edu” email address it was free (wouldnt worl for alum.edu tho). Three of use use it with no fees. We talked about the video, since we are annoyed with Netflix’s new stunt, but haven’t decided yet.



His Prime account will run out one year after he started it (it’s not free the whole time someone has a functioning .edu e-mail address). When his Prime is about to expire, they will e-mail him to give him the $39 offer for his second year in the program.

Also, the Prime free Amazon VOD is probably not sufficient to replace Netflix since it’s a pretty limited selection of what qualifies.
