Shopping-oriented FAST channel Amazon Live officially joined the Samsung TV Plus lineup on March 31, completing what may be the most consequential content-commerce alliance in connected TV this year. The launch arrives exactly one week after Samsung and Amazon unveiled a DSP interactive ad technology partnership at IAB NewFronts -- meaning the two companies have now locked in both the content layer and the advertising infrastructure of a full-funnel CTV commerce ecosystem simultaneously. For an industry watching subscription fatigue drive viewers en masse toward free ad-supported streaming, this is the moment the TV remote becomes a buy button.
