FAQ About Netflix vs. Amazon Prime

Neither Netflix nor Amazon Prime offer traditional live TV channels in their streaming services. Both platforms primarily focus on providing on-demand content, including movies, TV shows, documentaries, and original programming.

While Netflix and Amazon Prime Video do not provide live TV channels like cable or satellite providers, they may offer some live content in certain circumstances:

• Netflix: Netflix does not offer live TV channels or live streaming of traditional broadcast or cable networks. However, they do occasionally stream live events or interactive content, such as stand-up comedy specials, music performances, or interactive storytelling experiences. These live events are typically produced or curated by Netflix specifically for their platform.
• Amazon Prime Video: Similarly, Amazon Prime Video does not offer live TV channels as part of its streaming service. However, they do provide live sports streaming in select regions. For example, Amazon has secured the rights to stream live sports events like Premier League football matches in the UK and select NFL games in the US. These live sports offerings may vary depending on the region and specific licensing agreements.
