Amazon Prime?

I had to figure this out yesterday. First, as others have said, you have to view it from your kindle. Second, the lending library doesn't come up till after you are viewing the book on the full screen on the kindle.

I am still trying to decide if I want to keep the membership once the 'free' period is over. We don't order a lot throughout the year. The movie selection appears very week. I do like the 1 free book a month, but don't need it.

I still don't see the lending library option. I am viewing the book description on the kindle and see the "buy" option and a "send sample now" option at the right, but nothing about the lending library. Where should that button be? (BTW I also have downloaded multiple movies for free, so I know my "Prime membership" is associated with my account.) This is very frustrating.

The prime books can only be checked out from the kindle and you are only allowed to borrow one a month. As far as I know, they can not be read on the Kindle apps (PC, iPad, android)

I usually find books with the computer so the easiest way I have found to do this is to add the book to my wish list and then pull up my wish list on the kindle.

Try live chat. They should be able to answer your questions!

Thanks. I finally figured it out. I was trying to access the books through the Amazon.com store via web browser function on my Kindle (I have a Fire). That wasn't working. I had to go to through the Books tab instead and click on the store link from that screen. That finally got me to the "Kindle Owners' Lending Library" option. Success (finally)!

If you have Prime, can you stream the free movies over your TV (for example, though a Tivo), or just the Kindle Fire?

Both of our blu-ray players are able to stream the Amazon Prime videos. I don't know what all devices are compatible with it but I would think Amazon would have a list of them on their website.

There is always the computer as well.

Just checked and Amazon does have the compatible devices listed on their website:
