Hi Jim, Amazon publishes a list of its compatible devices here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/video/ontv/devices/ref=hp_3757_compatible I do not know why some devices are compatible and some aren't, but I can tell you that having an Amazon compatible device is of the utmost importance to me. Rarely will a smart tv or smart blu ray have Amazon but not Netflix or Hulu.

There's no net flix, hulu, you tube and amazon is not supported on the lg blue- ray/ dvd player. i would recommend this to my friends and family. Good luck!

Jim, could you send me a link to where you read this information? I checked Sony's website and could not find anything mentioning netflix streaming on this device. Thanks -

I just bought 2 LG Blu Ray players (w/ WI FI) and can't stream Amazon.... will most likely be returning BOTH of them, one is still in the shipping box unopened... BOO LG

I own the BD-P1600 it only streams Netflix, Youtube, Blockbuster, & Pandora it does not appear to have an app for Amazon streaming, so my answer is No, but perhaps the 2012 & 2013 Samsung models do, also you'll need to buy a pricey Samsung adapter to get this model to go wireless. I recommend buying different model with wifi built in to avoid extra cost & hassles if you continue searching through models you should come across another player with the streaming options of your choice good luck happy shopping :)

Yes you can, also Hulu, Netflix and Amazon. I have had no problem streaming these.

I believe because Amazon an LG did not negotiate for that access. It has quick connect for Netflix, Hulu, and any others. LG also offers rentals in 2d and 3d simu;iar to Blockbuster vdeo rentals. I believe you ca connect via the internet "google"; I do not have Amazon Prime. I go to the internet just like I would from my computer. I suggest you send Amazon your question-I find them to be very resourceful and helpful..

You have to use a Sony Blu-ray player or any brand that has a deal with Amazon. Samsung and Amazon seem to NOT play nice together and will likely not come to an agreement anytime soon.

Yes. I have had a Roku for several years, and used primarily for Netflix. Now with the newer RokuHD and Amazon Prime membership, I can stream everything from Amazon that is available in excellent viewing quality.

I have found lower quality resolution with Netflix streaming wirelessly than I get with Amazon using the same speed and config. I have a BluRay player attached that has wireless that I plan to try to see if it is better but I don't think it is the connection since I can stream HD from Amazon and get a totally crisp picture. I have a 10mb connection. UPDATE:As mentioned above I did try streaming Netflix through my Sony BluRay to see if the connection was better. It may have been very marginally better, but did not solve the recurring pixelation problem. In my case at 10mb it may be partially a speed problem. I plan to upgrade to 60 or 90 in the next few weeks and will post another update after that as well.

We recently replaced our Panasonic Viera Plasma, after not even 5 years because it became bad !!! So I can not even recommend this TV. To your question - we never did amazon movie streaming, so I can't answer your question - sorry.

Everyone else is correct. You can only stream movies using the installed apps. There is no browser use with this TV.

I had the same question about my BD-C6500. After scouring the web without finding anything, I e-mailed both Amazon (no info) and Samsung (no reply), then called Samsung, who said that for now only their TV's support Amazon's streaming, but suggested that I keep checking their site for updates; so maybe they have plans in the works to add Blu-rays so they stay competitive with Sony and Panasonic, some of who's models ARE supported? Wish I better better news!

The best answer tp your question is to go to Amazon prime and see if it can be directed to your LG. I think it can with the right app but I have never tried to do it myself. I just stream on my Laptop. good luck.

There is no Amazon native app that I can see on it as of current firmware update. If the content you downloaded through Amazon isn't protected by any kind of DRM and is just a video file it will most likely play, this thing hasn't refused to play anything I've put in it so far. I just upload all the files to it via LAN and things play just fine.

I am having the same issue. I check the network connection and it is fine. I can pick a movie in the Netflix app so I am connected to Netflix. I contacted Netflix and they gave me a list of lg blu ray players that they said LG provided them and this is not one of them. I've also contacted LG to see what their response is but I haven't gotten a response yet. Has anyone used Netflix with this blu ray player? If so, how did you activate it?
