Is there any way to add the Amazon streaming movie service to MC17 manually? I've played around with it a little bit, and haven't had any success.

I guess ideally, we would treat it like the Netflix options....

Thoughts?

Unfortunately, Jeff Bezos never calls.

Your services could be so much better with a top-tier desktop and couch-friendly player.

I'll leave him a message. I think he's either at the Long Now clock or the spaceport today...

The best I have been able to do is add a link to the amazon instant video webpage in my theater view.  Click on that and then grab the keyboard.  At least I don't have to exit media center to watch a movie.

I'd use the Amazon Instant Video service CONSTANTLY if I could use it through MC.  As it is, I usually just fire up iTunes if I need to rent something in a pinch.  I have absolutely no desire to use the web video player or whatever junk they have available for desktop use.  As annoying as iTunes is, at least I can get it to work with my remote control.

Heck, I'm a Amazon Prime member so I get all sorts of content free, and I still never use it because the user experience is so annoying from the couch.

I'm in exactly the same boat as glynor.

It is horrible via a Roku as well.
