Story summary
- A federal judge in Washington has thrown out a class-action lawsuit against Amazon over upcoming ads on Prime Video. Judge Barbara Rothstein determined that the introduction of ads in 2024 constitutes a shift in subscription benefits rather than a price hike. Subscribers can choose to avoid ads for an extra $2.99 per month, while the base subscription stays the same.
