Amazon Prime Mac App Released

Amazon Prime Video Now In The Mac App Store

To coincide with the eminent mayhem that is Amazon’s Black Friday, Amazon have released Prime into the Mac App Store available to download. The term native app might be a touch misleading as it’s seems to be more of a web wrapper

The Mac app does offer some nifty features like downloads, multi user logins and airplay functionality.

Of course to view any content on Amazon you will need an Amazon Prime subscription which can be purchased yearly or monthly.
