Before I introduce the ways to download purchased movies from amazon to your computer, something important needs to be noticed, as this may affect your final choice between the methods introduced. Next are Amazon Prime video rules for purchased videos and rental Amazon movies.
For rental videos, when a download option is available, you may temporarily download prime videos you rent to one compatible download device.
This means once you have downloaded a rental video to a compatible download device, you may not download that video to another device or simultaneously watch it on more than one device using the same Amazon account.
After renting a video, you'll typically have 48 hours to finish watching the video once you have commenced streaming or downloading, and you must finish watching the video prior to the expiration time, which is typically 30 days from your payment of the rental fee.
For purchased movies or shows, when a download option is available, you may download videos you purchase to four compatible download devices and you may watch and re-watch your purchased videos as often as you want and as long as you want.
Assuming that you’ve already purchased or rented a movie or a TV program, how can you download these videos?
