The Grand Tour

[djjerme]

It doesn't last at the student forever. I still have my college email address, but a year after graduating, they said "nope."

..that being said. I use the sh*t out of Amazon Prime, so I don't complain. The streaming video is the cherry on top since Netflix has sucked recently for movies.

Remember everyone, if you have a .edu email address (aka you are a student, or the university you attended allows you to maintain your .edu email address after you graduate, forever, like in my case) you get Prime for way cheap, like 50 or 60 a year, with 6 months free at the beginning.

Man, they are really going to force me to Prime weather I like it or not.

Amazon offers Prime discount to honor 'Grand Tour' show launch

Amazon Prime normally costs $100 a year. Starting at 12 a.m. ET Friday, you'll be able to sign up for a year of Prime for $80 if you're a first-time user. (In the UK that's a discount from £79 to £59.) The promotion lasts all day Friday until 11:59 p.m.

It's going live at 00:01 GMT. Pacific that is 4:01pm Thursday.

I'd be very surprised if that were the case, though if that means I can get it at 6:01pm, I won't even be mad.

Another perk of my Prime membership.

Stoked.

From some one who works at Amazon video content service (first hand heard this):

The first episode will go live Thursday at Midnight. Even the senior execs haven't seen it yet..

Unfortunately, my contact was not a TG fan so it's not a big deal to him.

The first episode is Friday, though no one seems to know exactly when on Friday yet...

No matter, I'm really looking forward to it!
