Amazon Prime Video is joining forces with the SXSW Festival!
The Amazon streaming service is teaming up with the festival to launch “Prime Video presents the SXSW 2020 Film Festival Collection,” after all events were canceled amid the ongoing world health crisis.
The tech company is inviting filmmakers to take part in this online film festival, which will play exclusively on Prime Video in the U.S. The event will be available in front of the Prime Video paywall and free to all audiences around
Why go outside against the advice of doctors, scientists, and your overly concerned mom, when you can stay inside and be safe? Be a good human and watch TV in your house. If you need something to watch on Amazon Prime Video, these are the best TV show and movie options coming to the service in April 2020. Highlights include arthouse horror movie The Lighthouse and sweet sci-fi series Tales From the Loop.
Along with Netflix and Hulu, Amazon Prime Video is one of the leading streaming platforms with an award-winning collection of original films and TV series as well as buzzworthy acquisitions that have crossed over from the U.K. In the 13 years since it first launched in September 2006 with its pilot TV program, the service has found its footing with popular series like and its series adaptation.

Now that we're all spending a lot more quality time with our couches because of the COVID-19 pandemic, viewers are likely wondering what the best streaming service actually is. Apple and Disney entered the field in late 2019, while Quibi, a short-form mobile streaming service, launched earlier this week. And there are at least another two more streaming services coming this year, including HBO Max and NBCUniversal's Peacock.
