Amazon’s Freevee app gets an expiry date, but here’s how to keep watching for free

Prime Video is the new home for all of Freevee’s ad-supported content.

  •     Amazon confirmed plans to sunset its free streaming service, Freevee, late last year.
  •     The company has now notified users that the Freevee app will be shut down in August 2025.
  •     Freevee’s extensive library of movies, TV shows, and live TV will be available through Prime Video.

After announcing plans to wind down its free video streaming service late last year, Amazon has now confirmed that the Freevee app will finally be shut down in August. But there’s some good news for those who enjoy Freevee’s vast library of TV shows, movies, and live TV.

Remember if it’s “free”, then you are the product!

Now like the Google Graveyard, we have an “Amazon sunset”!

Amazon’s Dash buttons are no more. Remember the “Tide button”, and other product buttons to make reordering easy?  I don’t remember Amazon “sunseting” other things.  And certainly not as frequently as Google does.

RANT: Bill Maher is right “we are all NOT in it together”

Maher on Canada Protests: There’s an Accurate View That Some Can Afford to Stay Home and Others Who Can’t
IAN HANCHETT — 11 Feb 2022

*** begin quote ***

Maher stated, “I thought, like during the pandemic, I talked about this many times, we would see these ads, we are all in it together. And I’d think, no, we’re not. There are some people who stay home and some people who bring them the food. If you’re just ordering Amazon and you don’t ever have to go out and your job, you can do remotely — but who’s bringing the Amazon things? The trucker.”

Like my feelings about Piers Morgan, I am finding myself more and more agreeing with Bill Maher more and more.

I think that these politicians and bureaucrats who say “we are all in it together” are just peddling more “barbara streisand”!

I guess my views are becoming more into alignment with these guys calling the hypocrites out.
