If you’re a TV and movie fiend, you’ll be very familiar with the struggle of finding streaming services that work for you. There are a slew of providers on the market these days that offer a singular service, meaning you’ll likely have to go out of your way to subscribe to a few more in your search for that indie film you’ve been dying to see. 

Luckily, Amazon‘s Prime Video has taken the hassle out of streaming your favorites. Prime Video features more than 100 add-on subscriptions available to you with the touch of a button, including Apple TV+, Max, Paramount+, BET+, Crunchyroll, MGM+, STARZ and so many more. Speaking of subscriptions, a Prime Video account costs $14.99 per month, or $139 per year.

Add-on subscriptions, depending on the streaming service, will run you about $6.99 a month to $10.99 a month. Along with your channels, your Prime Video subscription allows you access to a huge library of movies, TV shows, and live sports, so you can stream Amazon Originals such as The Boys, Reacher and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. You’ll also be able to watch live TV, if that’s your thing. You also gain access to perks such as Amazon Music, Prime Gaming, Prime Reading and Amazon Photos.

We recommend adding Max to catch the new season of The Rehearsal or to finally watch Succession after putting it off for a while. Paramount+ is also a great addition for thriller fans, given you’ve got shows to stream such as Dexter and Yellowjackets, along with movies including Smile 2.

If you’re a fan of the action-packed world of anime, Crunchyroll should be your next channel addition for sure. They’ve got hits such as Solo Leveling and The Apothecary Diaries along with shojo titles including Fruits Basket and Kamisama Kiss. You’ve got a slew of great options all under one umbrella.

Prime Video’s add-on channels concept was introduced back in 2015. It was then rebranded into the channels we know today, and further expanded to include more channels and international markets. 

These add-on channels act as separate subscriptions, each with its own monthly fee. They can be managed through your Prime Video account so members can browse through each channel and manage their subscriptions all in one place. That means no more missing payments or losing track of subscriptions. With all this in mind, it seems like snagging a subscription is a no-brainer.
