Amazon,Netflix,Disneyand other video streaming services have been looking to beef up their content libraries to win over subscribers, committing billions toward licensing content and developing original programming.\nAt the same time, media juggernauts have undergone further consolidation to achieve greater scale to take on the likes of Amazon and Netflix.Discovery's$43 billion deal to merge with WarnerMedia after a spinoff fromAT&T,announced last week, is the latest sign of that.\nAmazon has longbeen willing to make big investmentson video content as a strategy to buoy Prime memberships, which now surpass 200 million globally.It spent $11 billionon video and music content last year, up from $7.8 billion in 2019. CEO Jeff Bezoshas argued thatthese investments reinforce Amazon's \"flywheel effect,\" in that it attracts more Prime subscribers, who in turn, tend to spend more on the site.\nAmazon has landed hits in film and television programming, including \"The Big Sick\" and \"Manchester By The Sea,\" winner of the 2017 Academy Award for best original screenplay, as well as series \"The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel\" and \"Transparent.\"\nAnother closely watched project, an adaptation of \"Lord of the Rings,\" is currently in production. \"Lord of the Rings\"has a season one price tagof $465 million, likely making it one of the most costly television series ever made.\nAmazon has also made an aggressive push into sports content, inking a dealwith the NFL in Mayto broadcast Thursday Night Football starting in 2022.\nAmazon has a seasoned representative in Hollywood. The companyannounced last weekthat it would bring back Jeff Blackburn, formerly a top lieutenant to Bezos, to oversee a new Global Media & Entertainment division, which consolidates its entertainment offerings under one heading, including Prime Video, Amazon Studios, its music and podcasting businesses, Amazon Games and Twitch.\nJames Bond wears Tom Ford's knitted sleeve bomber jacketCourtesy of Sony\nMGM will make Amazon's TV and film library even more robust. The Hollywood studio owns the James Bond catalog and its studio has made several hit shows including \"The Handmaid's Tale\" and \"Fargo.\" It also owns premium cable network Epix and owns a number of popular reality TV shows, including \"Shark Tank,\" \"Survivor\" and \"The Real Housewives\" series.\nMGM, which is a private company, has been seeking a buyer for several years. Its owners include Anchorage Capital, Highland Capital Partners, Davidson, Kempner Capital Management, Solus Alternative Asset Management and Owl Creek Investments — funds that took control of the studio when it emerged from bankruptcy in 2010.\nThe MGM deal could heighten antitrust concerns for Amazon. The company faces ongoing probes by multiple federal agencies, state attorneys general and Europe's antitrust watchdog. The House Judiciary antitrust subcommittee issued a sweeping report last October that found Amazonhas monopoly powerover third-party sellers on its marketplace.\nThe acquisition announcement comes one day after new antitrust claims were levied against Amazon. On Tuesday, Washington, D.C., Attorney General Karl Racineannouncedhe's suing Amazon on antitrust grounds, alleging the company's pricing contracts with third-party sellers have unfairly raised prices for consumers and harmed competition. Amazon pushed back against the lawsuit's claims, saying that sellers set their own prices for the products they sell on its marketplace.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":132688201,"gmtCreate":1622085027603,"gmtModify":1634183978331,"author":{"id":"3574260792698407","authorId":"3574260792698407","name":"darrenlsw","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3574260792698407","authorIdStr":"3574260792698407"},"htmlText":"Can
