Amazon changes things up again (in the UK) 7.16.15

Amazon day is officially over much to several peoples dismay, but that doesn't mean they didn't put out some information on a new service their offering soon. A once, very physical thing, of waiting in line at the box office to get your tickets only within the last seven years has really become a more digital thing from concerts, to movies, and to major events. Now Amazon is joining the competition and taking on a whole new service it originally hadn't touch.

So this might not be the first time Amazon has entered the ticket sales business, by selling tickets more recently in the UK to movie theaters. But this action is now pinning Amazon to compete with it's long established competitors Brown Paper Tickets and Ticketmaster in the digital space. And of course we can't forget the established they have an estimated 40 millions prime users according to USA Today back in February.  

With all this information, it'll be interesting to see if this can actually effect Amazon in a large way or if it will only make those with a Prime membership use Amazon for this new service. I mean, 40 million users is a massive amount and we all know someone who has one if we don't personally.
