Description
Do you want to own technology, solve new problems that didn't exist before, and have the ability to see the impact of your successes?

Amazon is shaping the future of digital video entertainment. Amazon and MX Player recently joined forces to accelerate premium free entertainment for 250 million users in India. With this acquisition, Amazon merged two of India's most popular free AVOD (or ad-supported video on demand) services – MX Player and Amazon miniTV into one service - Amazon MX Player. Amazon MX Player is Amazon India's big bet in terms of shaping the future of the free AVOD landscape in India.
