They are trying to penetrate the world market by creating some Amazing Prime produced content like Stand-Up comedy shows, dating shows and etc. It also has an old classic collection of Cartoon Network shows like Dexter’s Lab, Johnny Bravo and etc.
One great thing about Amazon Prime is that it offers a lot more shows and movies which is roughly 18,000 compared to its competitor Netflix which is 10,000.

Netflix
Netflix is the lead competitor for Amazon Prime and is widely popular around the world! It produces more in-house original content than other studio owned content.

Apple TV+
After making iPhones, iPads, MacBooks, Apple has invested in delivering content through its streaming service Apple TV+. This one is recommended for those who already have an Apple device, as it can not be opened in an Android device. This is one of the reasons why Apple TV+ is not getting big as compared to other sites. But some of it’s most popular shows include Game of Thrones, The Morning Show and Jason Momoa-led See, which are definitely worth watching!
