Sadly, they still don't have almost anything that Netflix doesn't.

I like Prime, but for me to view it as a potential Netflix replacement, they've GOT to fix their UI. They need a queue, better search and discover options, etc.

I really wish they'd group TV shows by show somewhere too, instead of listing each season separately.

I enjoy Amazon VoD, but I have yet to watch anything from their prime collection, even though I'm a prime member.

I agree, the UI is way too cumbersome...

The price however, is juuuuust right.
