Internet VOD market is getting really crowded. Playon, yet VOD player, adds amazon VOD content.

I don’t think there is room for more than 2 or 3 players to be the VOD aggreagtors. There will be a lot of consolidation in this space when the dust settles.

Roku, the $99 set-top box that lets users watch netflix movies directly on their TV, has added support for Amazon VOD.

After much anticipation, Amazon VOD finally landed on the Roku player this morning, expanding the capabilities of the $99 set-top box beyond Netflix. Roku owners will have access to Amazon’s VOD library of more than 40,000 titles, including the ability to purchase or rent new release movies the same day as their DVD release.
