When Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) introduced its Amazon Prime service, the focus was on two-day free shipping for an annual fee of $79. The fee has risen to $99, but the number of services has grown as well.

In addition to two-day shipping, Prime members also have access to Prime Instant Video streaming and Amazon Music streaming, both also included in the annual fee. In addition, we found another 10 benefits Amazon makes available to Prime members that are pretty cool as well and certainly not as well known.

For some of these benefits there are requirements and exclusions that you need to check out on your own.
