Amazon.com forged a licensing agreement with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, letting the online retailer add “The Silence of the Lambs,” and hundreds of other movies and TV shows to its Internet video service.
Amazon’s Prime Instant Video catalog now includes more than 18,000 films and TV episodes, the Seattle-based e-commerce company said Wednesday. The MGM catalog, which includes “Terminator,” “Dances With Wolves” and “Rain Man,” will help Amazon’s service compete with offerings from Apple and Google’s YouTube.
