Amazon Seeks Dismissal of Prime Video Ad Lawsuit
Amazon argues that Prime Video's ad-supported tier complies with its terms, as users were informed of potential changes to membership benefits.
- Amazon has filed a motion to dismiss a class-action lawsuit alleging misleading practices over the addition of ads to Prime Video.
- The lawsuit claims Amazon engaged in false advertising by charging a $2.99 fee to avoid ads, despite previous ad-free access.
- Amazon maintains that its terms of service allow changes to Prime benefits and that it never guaranteed an ad-free experience.
- The company argues that users still receive the full value of Prime Video without paying more for the overall Prime membership.
- The lawsuit seeks at least $5 million in damages and aims to prevent Amazon from continuing alleged deceptive practices.
