The married couple and showrunners behind the HBO juggernaut have inked a rich nine-figure, five-year overall deal with Amazon. Sources estimate the deal is worth upward of $30 million per year.
Joy and Nolan — who will create original series for Amazon — both previously had individual overall deals with Westworld producers Warner Bros. TV. With the Amazon deal, both Joy and Nolan will continue to oversee Westworld — from WBTV — as writers and exec producers for multiple additional seasons, or as one source said, "for the life of the show." Season three is currently in production and the genre drama has yet to be renewed beyond that. Its third season will likely return in 2020. Sources say there are no plans to bring in a new showrunner for a potential fourth season or beyond as remaining at the helm of Westworld was a top priority for Joy and Nolan.

Cool. I feel that HBO will be bleeding a lot of talent after the merger and management changes. Amazon seems like a good place creatively. They seems to be gunning for high-tier, expensive shows and showrunners. It remains to be seen how successful these shows will be, but exciting for sure.
They sell all kinds of goods, they provide hosting services etc etc... So, they are not really as dependant on the income that comes directly from subscribers as other streaming companies.
Amazon has a really unique position compared to all other streaming companies out there, people watch shows on Amazon and then buy stuff from them. Brilliant move.
Why would watching something made by Amazon urge you to purchase something from their shop?
