Amazon is not doing this with the intention of "killing" flash.

They do this because flash ads are now no longer seen by a large enough group of users which makes them bad advertising vehicles.

Maybe at some point the Prime Music people will decide that a large enough group of users are no longer able to use their service, but that is a totally different decision with different motivations.

Now if only the music licencing services backing Prime don't require flash and DRM ..

Does Netflix still require flash?

Silverlight is required on browsers that do not support EME

Can EME be used in streaming music players, like Prime Music or Spotify?

Yes, I just discovered this when I moved to a FreeBSD desktop using Chromium, where there is no flash.

do as i say, not as i do?

the video reviews are flash still too.
