Summary
A German court ruled that Amazon cannot force Prime Video customers to accept advertising or pay extra for ad-free streaming. The Munich Regional Court sided with consumer protection organizations who argued that Amazon's practice of introducing ads to Prime Video and then charging extra for ad-free viewing violated consumer rights. Amazon has indicated it may appeal the decision.
