Amazon is another mega-corporation known for its investment in media-related products and services.
The company founded by Internet visionary, Jeff Bezos, has become the destination of choice for consumer products.
They just so happen to own Twitch TV, an online gaming stream service that they paid $970 million dollars to acquire.
For reference, Twitch TV also acquired Twitch.com for almost seven figures. The exact number is confidential, and previous owner Peter Kay was very happy with the sale.
Just like Apple in our coverage yesterday, Amazon is investing in .TUBE domain names, preparing to roll out content streaming services. Recently, Twitch experimented with food-eating streams, believe it or not!
We noticed the following dot .TUBE registrations by Amazon:
amazonaws.tube
amazonecho.tube
amazonfiretv.tube
amazonmusic.tube
amazonprime.tube
amazonprimemusic.tube
amazonprimevideo.tube
amazonstudios.tube
amazonvideo.tube
amazonvideodirect.tube
cloudfront.tube
ec2.tube
echo.tube
elastic.tube
firehd.tube
firetv.tube
firetvstick.tube
imdb.tube
primemusic.tube
primevideo.tube
twitchcon.tube
This is just a short list derived from our research, and far from a full search on Amazon’s investment in dot .TUBE domains; the list is expected to increase.
