If VM want Amazon on their boxes, I think they will be pushing a door that is already ajar. Hopefully, it will come later this year.
Of course VM wants Amazon as it lives solely off others' content. But Amazon sees itself as an OTT operator which cuts out the middle man - unlike Netflix - so could easily have brought negotiations to a halt by, say, demanding an obscene amount of money for VM to distribute its content.
