Amazon Prime freezes my player ALL THE TIME! I have to unplug it and replug it to get it to work again.

Only if you count an infuriatingly bad connection -- and it's well-documented that it's Sony's fault. The reason: Sony Blu-ray players route all streaming video through Sony's own proxy servers so that they can track what you watch. Many, many nights I've cursed my Sony Blu-ray for its terrible video quality, and the problem has been all on Sony's end -- when I connect to that exact same content via my laptop, it's fast, clear video. But the Sony Blu-ray gets horrible quality because it's routing that content through Sony's slow proxy servers.

I updated to the latest FW as of Sept 2015. It works with Amazon but has some problems. CC doesn't work correctly - If you turn it on, then off, then back on, it will permanently display "This is sample text" on your screen with no more captions. If you try to fast forward or rewind, it gets mixed up on where it is. Fast forward may dump you near the beginning of the movie. Seems to be random. This makes it very hard to back up and replay something you've missed. Finally, after about 15 minutes of play, it will go to a screen saver screen. You just need to push a remote button to clear this. Sad that Sony can fix these FW issues. I updated to the latest FW as of Sept 2015. It works with Amazon but has some problems.

Yes, I have two of these and have used both to access Amazon Prime for over a year. While I have occasional glitches, I have not experienced the freezing problems mentioned in another answer.

Sony website says there is a firmware update dated January 2015 if you're having streaming issues.

Yes, it will play Amazon Prime videos. However, about an hour into an Amazon Prime movie the player occasionally will freeze. Controls do nothing. The power plug must be pulled from the wall for a few seconds to reset the player. Then you must navigate back to the movie. Resume will only take you back to the beginning of the movie, the player doesn't know where you left off because it crashed/locked up.

I just got Amazon Prime and have been watching things with this player.. I don't have any lockups, but once every 4 or 5 hours, it will stop responding to the remote for any command other than to turn off the player... Then once it's off it won't respond to the remote again for anything until I unplug and replug the player.

Not without help. You will need a device like an Amazon Fire Stick or an Xbox that has the Amazon Prime app on it. You plug the device into the HDMI port of the TV and then you can watch Amazon Instant Videos.

If it does - I haven't figured out how to use it - mine is hooked up to internet, though and gets Netflix, Amazon videos, You Tube, etc. ....

You can stream with this player so I don't see why you could not stream amazon prime.

I don't know if it will access mp3s in amazon because I don't use amazon streaming services. However, it does have amazon as one of the programming choices. So I assume that it will.

If you are asking if this TV can connect to Amazon Prime streaming video, then the answer is "no". This TV has absolutely no Internet connectivity capabilities at all. It's just a plain old TV, although it's a decent one for the price.

The player has built in apps and Amazon amongst others can be accessed, when the player is connected to your TV.Don't forget to sign up with Amazon first in order to do so. I signed up with an Amazon Prime account.

I have never used it with Amazon Prime. There are a number of apps thru which you r able to stream or purchase for permanent download to your device. I use my device strictly for download and storage purposes. As well I can stream from other media devices on my network.

Yes, built in app on home screen that let's you sink with your Amazon Prime account. The picture is even better than my cable provider's HD content.

Yes it does, I signed up for both Netflix and Amazon Prime, and tried out both on the player. Both worked fine with no obvious problems.

two of my sisters have that TV and yes Amazon Prime Instant Video will stream through it but there is no application inside the TV. you have to use a blu ray dvb, Apple streamer or Ruko but it will look beautiful

We are not a "prime" member. We are a separate store selling on Amazon. Now Amazon may sell it directly and they would allow "prime" service but I can only answer as far as our listing is concerned, and it is not eligible
