Amazon\u2019s purchase of MGM for $8.45 billion is complete<\/a>, without a public response from the FTC on whether or not it will challenge the deal. Reports have suggested for months that the FTC was considering a challenge<\/a>, and The Wall Street Journal<\/em><\/a> noted earlier this month that Amazon certified it had given the FTC all necessary information, setting a mid-month deadline that it would close the deal, with or without a response from the agency and its new leader, Lina Khan.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, the European Union\u2019s antitrust commission gave Amazon\u2019s purchase the green light<\/a>, noting the \u201ctransaction would raise no competition concerns,\u201d as the \u201coverlaps\u201d between both companies are \u201climited.\u201d Amazon seems to have taken that as approval enough and has closed the deal nearly a year after both companies first signed off on it<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Amazon\u2019s landmark acquisition of the entertainment giant behind James Bond<\/em>, Rocky<\/em>, The Addams Family<\/em>, The Handmaid\u2019s Tale<\/em>, and a host of other iconic shows and movies should help bolster Amazon\u2019s existing Prime Video library. Amazon senior vice president Mike Hopkins said in a statement that \u201cWe welcome MGM employees, creators, and talent to Prime Video and Amazon Studios, and we look forward to working together to create even more opportunities to deliver quality storytelling to our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

The addition of MGM\u2019s massive collection \u2014 not to mention the possibility for more originals \u2014 may help Amazon\u2019s streaming service get an edge on Netflix, HBO Max, and Disney\u2019s family of services. As it stands, Prime subscribers pay a (newly increased<\/a>) fee of $139 \/ year fee to gain access to the over 26,000 movies and 2,700 series<\/a> available on Prime Video, along with other perks like free two-day shipping on any purchases from the site.<\/p>\n

This news comes as other media behemoths are looking to shake things up in the streaming industry. Last year, AT&T announced that it\u2019s merging WarnerMedia with Discovery<\/a> in a move that encompasses shows from major networks including HBO, CNN, Cartoon Network, HGTV, TLC, Food Network, and more. The merger just got approved by the US government in February<\/a>, and HBO Max and Discovery Plus will be combined into one app<\/a> as a result.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
