Amazon Prime Video Ad Tier Class Action Dismissed

Amazon last year pivoted to making its ad tier the default for its over 100 million subscribers, which instantly turned the service into a streaming-ad juggernaut and the largest ad-supported subscription streamer.

They claimed breach of contract and violations of state consumer protection laws over the alleged “bait and switch.”
