Amazon has announced that Prime Video TV series and movies will feature advertisements going forward to help the company "continue investing in compelling content."The ad rollout will begin in early 2024, and the ads will be "limited," Amazon said. The aim is for Prime Video to have "meaningfully fewer" ads than traditional linear TV, and also fewer than other streaming TV companies that feature ads.
