Amazon is shutting down Freevee
(www.theverge.com)
I’ve literally never heard of such a thing.
Oh no! What's Freevee?
Once they added advertisements to Prime Video, they no longer had a need to have FreeVee. I assumed this would have happened sooner, but I'm not shocked. Hopefully this frees up space on all those Fire devices that were forced to have the app without the ability to remove it.
I know freevee didnt require a sign up, Im guessing AP does.

I think Wil Wheaton had something that was supposed to air on Freevee, the link his PR person gave him just threw you back into the Amazon video page, I've never actually seen any information about the service or a working video stream surface.
It seems like a lot of places are ready to throw millions of dollars into system and just never freaking marking them.
