In a press release on Sept.

on Prime Video, The Verge reports.

The ads will first roll out in the U.S., U.K., Canada and Germany in "early 2024.".
Later that year, Australia, France,
Italy, Mexico and Spain will also get ads.
In the U.S., Prime members who want to remain

$14.99 a month or $139 a year.
Ad-free pricing for the other countries will be revealed "at a later date," Amazon said.
Amazon's decision to introduce ads to the platform comes just a few months after the company laid off another 9,000 employees in an attempt to cut costs, The Verge reports.
Meanwhile, competing streaming services have also been increasing prices and adding subscription tiers with ads

was opened after the trailer
for GTA VI leaked online. .
According to a report by 404 Media, a Google

The Verge reports that an image
of the game's trailer was posted to
Reddit just ahead of its big reveal at E3. .
The post contained an “admin.youtube.com” URL,
