The Amazon Luna employs a channel-like subscription model. There's a separate subscription service called Luna Plus, styled by Amazon as Luna+. As previously mentioned, this is a channel you can purchase access to. It lets you play a library of games but comes with a few extra benefits, like 4K / 60fps gaming (which Amazon notes is coming soon) and the ability to play on two devices at once.
