I think they could do better pricing wise. I'm happy paying $8 for two simultaneous streams, if I would to do any more like three or four, I wouldn't have enough bandwidth to do HD. Right now I lag immensely online if even stream with one device and try to play some online multiplayer. Now, if I had Google Fiber...I would love to have twenty simultaneous streams!

I will be getting this! Glad they came out with it, was about to just set up a second account.

I think it is great. All 3 of our kids have a kindle besides my wife's laptop and my PC. And we have the profile option. More streaming options can make a difference.

They should make it $10 instead, I'd upgrade for sure.

You can stream two things at once on the $8 plan? LOL I never knew that.

Artificially limiting availability and then charging more to increase the limit? No thanks.

They are probably right that not many people will upgrade to it, but good for those who need it. I have only run into the problem a few times when a roomate is watching somehting on my xbox, and my wife is watchign something on my ps3 and I am trying to watch something on my laptop while away it is rare enough that i doubt I will want to spend 1.5x what i do now, but who knows mayeb one day it'll happen and i will remember i cna upgrad emy account and just do it
