With a full-price subscription that costs the same as its competitors, Amazon Music Unlimited is tough to recommend.

Google Play Music allows users to upload up to 50,000 of their own music files to be streamed on any Google Play Music-compatible device (a feature that Amazon Music used to have but discontinued starting in January 2018).Īmazon Music Unlimited is good but not great, which could be excused if the interface were at all pleasant unfortunately, it's clunky at best and frustrating at worst. Apple Music offers seamless integration across Apple devices. Spotify offers offline playback on its desktop apps while Music Unlimited only allows it on mobile devices. Apple Music has an estimated 78 million users as of June 2021, according to Statista, and Spotify has 188 million premium subscribers as of the second quarter of 2022.Amazon Music Unlimited is a strong contender to Spotify, Apple Music, and Google Play Music that offers a lot of the same benefits, but falls short in execution and doesn't offer anything unique that sets it apart from existing music streaming services. Ugh! We're cancelling Prime if this isn't fixed.- Ashley Franz November 6, 2022Īmazon Music had 55 million subscribers as of 2020, the last time it released statistics about its subscriber numbers, though its competitors Apple Music and Spotify continue to outperform its platform. Amazon Music kept us subscribed, but shuffle and skip limits ruined it. Loved listening to albums and being able to trust my kids with music. You've destroyed what I loved about your app.- Lynann November 3, please bring back the old Prime Music. If I wanted another version of Spotify, I would just use Spotify. Thanks for nothing.- Troy Mollin November 1, 2022ĭear Amazon Music Prime: this new update where I can't download albums and can only shuffle play sucks.

Naturally, the switch-up has elicited some less-than-impressed reactions on Twitter.Īmazon music offially sucks now.
