is Amazon Prime gone forever?

I followed Chewitt's instructions from a few weeks ago to setup Amazon Prime video using the Sandmann repository.

It didn't work, but then I saw CvH's post from Jan 2nd that Amazon VOD won't work after the new year.

Is that a temporary glitch? Or has Amazon done something to permanently put the kibosh on Prime access through Kodi?

History shows that these changes are rarely permanent (where there's a will, there's a way) but since fixing depends on part-time developers giving time for free, things aren't always quick, esp. in early Jan when everyone heads back to their day jobs again. Keep a watch on the Kodi add-on support thread for more info.

Thanks! I also found more info on Sandmann's github page and I get the impression from reading the comments there that the problem is "fixable".
