Amazon Unveils Original Video Series Supported by Ads

Re/code: Amazon has spent billions to create and acquire TV shows that it shows without ads to boost the value of its Prime membership program. Now, for the first time, it has unveiled an original video series that will be supported by ads and live outside Prime’s walls. “The Fashion Fund,” a 10-episode reality show series produced by Conde Nast Entertainment is available for free to anyone who visits Amazon, so long as they are willing to sit through commercials.
