Amazon Prime Day is quickly approaching, but the deals are already starting to pour in for Prime members. One such deal allows Prime members to enjoy five months of Amazon Music Unlimited for free. This music streaming service is similar to competitors like Spotify and Apple Music, offering unlimited access to a vast library of songs.
It’s important to note that this offer is exclusively for current Prime members. Once the free trial period ends, the service will cost $10 per month, which is a standard rate compared to other streaming platforms. To avoid being charged after the trial period, simply set a reminder to cancel before the five months are up.
While Amazon Music Unlimited didn’t make it to the list of the best music streaming services, it still offers a solid music listening experience. The only drawbacks mentioned were its slightly less user-friendly interface compared to other platforms and its aggressive podcast marketing. However, in terms of sound quality and music library, it stands on par with its competitors.
One common issue with music streaming services, including Amazon Music Unlimited, is the low payouts to artists. Amazon reportedly pays around $0.004 per stream, which falls within the range of what other platforms like Spotify pay. However, major artists with direct licensing agreements may negotiate better deals compared to emerging artists who often receive very little compensation.
