Amazon in Movie-Streaming Deal with NBCUniversal

SEATTLE: Amazon.com and NBCUniversal Domestic TV Distribution have entered into a partnership that sees a range of movies from Universal Pictures available for streaming through Prime Instant Video.

Titles headed to the streaming service under this new deal include Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Elizabeth, Gosford Park, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Notting Hill, Being John Malkovich, Fletch and Billy Elliott.

Earlier this month, Amazon scored a similar licensing deal with CBS Corporation that allows Prime users to stream some 2,000 episodes of the television network’s shows.

“We are very excited to offer Prime members popular Universal films at no additional cost," said Cameron Janes, the director of Amazon Instant Video. “Our customers love movies and now we offer them more than 2,000 movies to choose from with Prime Instant Video.”
