Can I buy a TV show from Amazon Instant Video and download it to my Mac? The FAQ file is very confusing. It makes it seem like if you want to watch from a computer, you must stream it. The only time it mentions downloading is for the Kindle Fire, a device that I do not have, and I don't have a need for it either.
In theory, you don't own the Amazon audio books. So is there another way to download and keep Amazon Prime free Audible books forever? Yes, you can draw support from a third-party Audible converter to do it. Here, we can meet the DRmare Audible Converter for Windows / Audible Converter for Mac. It has the ability to download and keep Amazon.
All I want to do is buy the show from Amazon, and download the video files. From there, I can just open the video files and watch them. Is that supported? Also, are these files protected in some way? I have a video converter, and I would really like to convert them to MP4 so I can watch them on my iPod Touch.
Basically, Amazon explains pretty much anything you may want to understand. According to the help files on Amazon.com, this service (Downloading Amazon Instant Video) is only provided to Windows users. They make you download a special player to download the videos, and that player doesn't work on a Mac. So to speak, you cannot download Amazon Instant Video to Mac directly. Besides, Amazon bought files are DRM protected. However, you can still get Amazon purchased movies, TV shows onto a Mac for enjoying.
