It`s more shows and movies, only with advertising.
Amazon has teamed up with IMDB (insofar as Amazon, which owns IMDB, probably said `Hey, IMDB! We`re going to do a thing) to bring free movies to the Internet Movie Database.
It`s a free service called `IMDB Freedive.` (Which first was rumored to be coming back in August.) And on it you`ll get movies like Memento and True Romance, TV shows like Fringe and *Quantum Leap (oh, boy ...) and IMDB originals like The IMDB Show, IMDB Brief and Casting Calls. There`s actually quite a bit of content on there, and the Amazon Prime Video app already is pointing folks toward the ad-supported service. It`s a U.S.-only thing for now. If you still want to buy things, you can. This is just a free option.
