My TV is right next to the house cable input, so ethernet is readily available. It's worth a shot. One thing to add, though: I've found a lot of movies on Amazon that aren't available on Netflix. Hulu we only used for our trial period, and found no use for it. Amazon requires I install a plug-in, which makes no difference...I can't even watch the movies on my Mac. Only on my iPhone or iPad, which then won't transfer to the TV using the Apple HDMI adapter. It just kind of seems to be a waste of the money for Amazon Prime if I can only watch movies on my phone.
