If it were a minor game each week, I could accept they would get some idea how viable it would be. Unfortunately for them it is saturation coverage in 2 December mid-weeks, proving very little.
I for one will take a months free subs to get an idea (and watch for nothing) if I would subscribe if they did bid & get better packages next time round.
I will not subscribe to Amazon because of this, but I will get a better idea of if streaming is for me at no extra cost.
A win-win solution I would suggest.

That is true. But I would imagine that Amazon felt this bid would be useful for a number of reasons, including testing the likely take-up, assessing the issues with streaming premiership football and analysing customer feedback.
Where that all leads, we shall see.
