Amazon Instant Video Credit for HD Purchases and Rentals

Posted on Wednesday, May 4, 2011  

Hello,

As someone who has purchased digital movies or TV shows in high-definition (HD) from Amazon Instant Video, we wanted to provide you more information about how we deliver HD content. It is our goal to provide you an uninterrupted viewing experience without any video reloading or “buffering.” To provide you uninterrupted viewing we may lower the resolution of HD videos to standard definition during streaming playback. We do this if we detect that your Internet connection to our service may not be fast enough to support HD playback. For more information on viewing HD videos from Amazon Instant Video, please visit our Help page here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200256920

Because you may not have been able to playback one of your rentals or purchases in HD quality, we have issued you a one-time Amazon Instant Video credit of $1 for each of the HD movies and TV episodes you have purchased from us for a total amount of $43. In order to apply the credit to your Amazon Instant Video account, please click here, http://www.amazon.com/instantvideo/hdcredit or copy the following link in your browser and follow the online instructions:

http://www.amazon.com/instantvideo/hdcredit

Once your credit of $43 has been successfully added to your account, it will be automatically applied to your future eligible purchases from Amazon Instant Video. Your credit will expire on May 3, 2012.

Thank you for using our service,

The Amazon Instant Video Team

If the program fee or fundraising requirement is paid via online donation, 4.75% will be added to the total as this is the processing cost charged by online systems to be able to accept donations electronically (our donation system, Network for Good, will prompt you to do this).

I hate that this is the status quo for accepting donations online!

I hate business cards! They are such an inefficient way of having someone’s contact information in a usable form; even worse, business cards get lost in stacks! This stack in particular is a fine collection of 25 business cards of varying shapes, sizes, and colors; all of which I received at a conference over the course of three days, and will never look at again. Business Cards, our relationship is over; I will no longer accept you from anyone or give you to anyone.

Whoa! Future! “The Zeal Transcend GPS Goggle ($400-$500) gets around this problem by mounting a micro LCD display right inside the goggles. In addition to showing real-time GPS data, the screen can also offer feedback like speed, latitude/longitude, altitude, vertical distance travelled, total distance travelled, the temperature, and the time, all on a screen that appears to hang roughly six feet in front of you.” (via Zeal Transcend GPS Goggle | Uncrate)

Netflix Adapts Pricing to Usage — Users Are Streaming

“The fact is that Netflix members are already watching more TV episodes and movies streamed instantly over the Internet than on DVDs, and we expect that trend to continue.”

Hmmm… some of these numbers seem like they are a tad on the high end.
