Amazon Prime Video has announced a big milestone for its ad-supported Amazon Prime Video service: it now has 315 million monthly viewers around the world. This is a big jump from a year ago, when there were just over 200 million viewers. It shows how quickly the ad-supported streaming model is becoming popular.

The announcement was made at Amazon's unBoxed event in Nashville, where company leaders said that this was a big moment for both the streaming and advertising industries. Amazon is reaching more people and making more money through advertising by letting people choose to watch movies, shows, and live sports with ads instead of paying for the premium, ad-free plan.

Jeremy Helfand, Vice President of Prime Video Advertising, said that the growth has changed the service in a big way. He said that the ad-supported service now reaches viewers in 16 countries. Analysts think this means that Amazon is trying to make its streaming service not only a place to watch content, but also a big place to advertise around the world. With this growth, Prime Video is now in direct competition with other big digital entertainment companies like YouTube, Netflix, and Hulu. The fight for viewers and ad dollars is heating up.

With this momentum, Amazon is clearly showing how powerful it can be to combine flexible viewing options with smart advertising. This strengthens its position as a major player in both the streaming and digital advertising markets.
