So many announcements today...but here's an exciting one for non-iPhone users: Amazon Instant Video for Android! Installing is a pain, the interface is clunky, and no Chromecast support...but it's better than nothing.

Amazon UK rep says an Android version of its video app is 'imminent'

BY RICHARD LAWLER 2 DAYS AGO

Amazon's video service is well-rounded, with both video-on-demand selection and Prime all you can eat viewing, but there's one big hole -- Android. Even though Amazon has apps for its Android-based Kindle family of devices (along with iOS, game consoles, Roku and other TV boxes), the rest of the Android family tree is left out of the party. That could change soon however, as PC Advisor reports Amazon UK Marketing & Merchandising Director said that an app for the platform is "imminent." The news came at the firm's Christmas show (yes, in July, just go with it), however it's unclear if it will apply to both phones and tablets. He also indicated that work on 4K content is progressing, confirming what we'd heard at CES, but there's no word on when the high-res video will hit Amazon's service. Despite repeated attempts to contact Amazon PR in the US and UK we have not received a response concerning the report, but if an app arrives soon it would help make Amazon a much better competitor against the likes of Netflix and Hulu.

too bad those streaming sites:

a) don't have the same quality
b) have ads or popups or wait times

c) you're an idiot
