If you’re already a part of the Amazon ecosystem and own one or more Echo or Fire TV devices, the Amazon Prime Music streaming service makes a lot of sense. One reason for this is that many songs feature lyrics that may be shown on your TV, in the Alexa app, or on your Echo Show smart display in rhythm with the music. Many people believe the service is called Prime Music, but it is only one of three accessible levels, and it is the most restricted. Amazon Prime Music streaming service is part of Amazon Prime subscription at no extra charge.
This means there’s a wide range of rates and possibilities, and we’ll go through them all and you’ll see how much you receive with just an Amazon Prime subscription, all the way up to the Music HD family tier.
Yes, but this isn’t the same thing as Amazon Music Unlimited. In essence, there are three different services:
So, how do they stack up? The first option, as the name implies, is included as part of an Amazon Prime membership, which costs £79.99 / $119 per year and offers you access to about 2 million songs, a fraction of the 50 million songs you receive with Amazon Music Unlimited.
When you upgrade to Music HD, you get millions of songs with at least double the bitrate and up to 10x the bandwidth of songs played via the normal Music service. Even if you can live with the 2 million music accessible with Prime Music, it’s worth noting that it’s one of the perks of having a Prime subscription, along with Amazon Video and speedier Prime delivery for things bought via Amazon‘s website. Don’t get us wrong: it’s a great deal versus paying for Spotify and Netflix individually, then paying for shipping on everything you buy on Amazon separately.
Amazon Prime Music, like other streaming platforms, allows you to stream music on request over your internet access. This may be done on your phone, PC, or through an Amazon Echo smart speaker. Because you can just ask Alexa to play a song, album, or playlist, this is one of the most simple ways to access Prime Music. You may, of course, transfer songs to your phone and play them offline.
A year’s subscription to Prime costs £79.99 / US$119, which means Prime Music can be had for as low as £6.67 / $9.92 each month. You can also add a Family Music Unlimited account to your Prime membership for £149 / $149 a year. Which works out to £12.42 / $12.42.
The Individual plan’s principal constraint is that members of a household must all share the very same playlists and library. If you want your own ‘account’ with only your favorite songs and playlists, you’ll need a Family plan, which costs £14.99 / $14.99 per month.
The option to acquire Music Unlimited on a single Amazon Echo device for £3.99 / $3.99 per month is an oddity. That’s wonderful if you can only have an Echo, or if you only listen to music via one. However, you will not be able to listen to the whole collection of 50 million songs on any additional Echos you own. Nor will you be able to play those tunes using Echo’s multiroom audio capability.
There are several methods to listen to Amazon Music. You may ask Alexa to play music through your Echo, but you can also use the Amazon Music app. This is the same app that you’d get if you signed up for it, and it’s just named Amazon Music.
Here’s what it looks like on an iPhone:
The applications do exactly what you’d expect: you can search for music, and make your own playlists. Also, listen to tracks on demand, and download them to your device so you can listen without the need for an internet connection. All of this is with ad-free playback.
Amazon Music is also accessible using a web browser.
My Music is one of the app’s tabs. This folder contains the music you’ve purchased from Amazon and may include CDs acquired as a result of Amazon‘s ‘authorship’ feature. This also allows you access to MP3 versions.
If you require a streaming music service and already have an Amazon Prime subscription. Amazon Music Prime is a perk that should not be overlooked. The Amazon Prime bonus feature provides access to over 2 million songs from Amazon‘s comprehensive music collection with no additional subscription required. The program is a fantastic location to listen to music and podcasts. But it’s definitely a stepping stone to it, which has a larger catalog of 60 million songs.
