Apparently available though the Prime Video app to Prime and non-Prime customers. The last word is possibly important, sounds like you need an Amazon account to sign in with.

There's going to be a standalone app for Fire TV apparently, but it's not out yet.

The Express has dropped another article - on there is a pricing list - which if real - seems to be suggesting this is a service 'directly in a TV set' and can also adjust picture and sound based on content.

Now given Comcast have not been shy talking making moves into the Smart TV space I wonder if this is a little more than just that new IP box/service that has already been launched elsewhere? Might explain that big NDA! ;)

Full fibre for an IPTV product would make sense
