tbd if Amazon will create an Amazon Prime Video app for the new Apple TV, but either way this is a discouraging precedent
"Amazon.com Inc. is flexing its e-commerce muscles to gain an edge on competitors in the video-streaming market by ending the sale of devices from Google Inc. and Apple Inc. that aren’t easily compatible with Amazon’s video service.
