Amazon has announced its new Instant Video Finder, a new tool that attempts to make it easier to find something to watch by providing suggestions based on a variety of topics. Available in beta now, the Instant Video Finder lets you narrow down choices based on ratings, TV shows or movies, and the usual genre choices. But it goes a step further to let you pick specific "moods," which will give you content that Amazon feels fits those moods. The Feel-Good mood provides movies such as A Christmas Story, while the Tough Guy category has films such as Die Hard and other action-type movies and TV shows. You can access the Instant Video Finder by visiting www.amazon.com/videofinder now.
