With the Amazon instant video for iOS app installed, the instant Video is now playing on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. Videos you've purchased with Amazon Instant Video will show up instantly on your Apple device once you download and sign into the app.
However, on computer you still have to use the Unbox Player to play Amazon Instant video, and there downloaded movies and TV shows will not add to your iTunes library. If you plan to manually organize all the media in iTunes, there’s a problem with Amazon Instant videos. To watch Amazon Instant Video on iTunes 11, you need to strip DRM and convert Amazon WMV video to iTunes 11 supported format, say H.264 .mp4 video. Follow the guide below to download your Amazon movie purchase to computer and add to iTunes 11.
Part 1. How to download Amazon Instant video to Windows/Mac computer:
All of the videos you buy from Amazon Instant Video are stored in Your Video Library. To download a video from Your Video Library on Amazon.com:
- Visit Your Video Library.
- Sign into your account if prompted.
- Click the video you want to watch.

Part 2. Get the Amazon WMV videos converted into H.264 MP4.
The key point is to select a useful video encoder. Since the Amazon WMV files are protected by DRM, you need a DRM remover tool. Also, it’s necessary to encode WMV to MP4, because the iTunes simply does not support WMV format. After tested a few tools, we find ChewTune works best. Here you go.
