Amazon.com, the online company famous for selling everything from books and CDs to groceries and toys, has entered the video download business. Like Apples iTunes store before them, Amazon has started offering movies and television shows for purchase as digital download files. These files can be played on your computer, on your television (with the right connection) and on several different portable devices. And they’re only $1.99!

The shows that are currently available encompass several different genres that include classic and current shows — and more are forthcoming! Miss the latest episode of 24, Prison Break, Bones, First Down, or CSI? Amazon has them — often the day after they’re shown on TV.

You can buy single episodes or complete seasons for one price. This is great for anyone who wants to check out the last episodes of their favorites. For the fans of television series finales, you can check out the incredibly popular Firefly and Star Trek, the animated classics The Jetsons and Jonny Quest, or even the Pamela Anderson sitcom Stacked!

Right now, Amazon is offering one episode of any series from their library for absolutely free. Click here for details. It doesn’t get any cheaper than that — so don’t wait!!
