There are plenty of great shows worth watching on Starz, but the streaming service can seem like an unnecessary add-on, especially if you’re already paying for a bunch of others. Prime Video is making the decision to try Starz out a little easier, though, by offering a subscription for just $1.99/mo. if you’re already a Prime Video subscriber.
That subscription deal will get you three months at that price, and then the service will renew at its normal price of $10.99/mo.
Starz is, of course, home to shows like Outlander, Power, and The Couple Next Door, but just as crucially, it has an archive of great movies that are often hard to catch on other services, including The Hunger Games, Jurassic Park, Fast X and Spider-Man: No Way Home.
This limited-time discount is one of several ways that Prime Video is attempting to make itself the streaming home for all of your channels. While many of the major streamers can be accessed through the service, though, Netflix and several other major players have not partnered with Amazon.
Still, a discount that steep can be hard to resist, and it’s almost definitely designed to encourage you to set up a subscription that you’ll eventually forget about. For that reason, it might be good to set some sort of reminder for yourself to cancel the subscription and avoid paying for a month of Starz at full price. Unless, of course, you love the streamer’s offerings so much that you just can’t resist coming back for more.
