Amazon Music vs Spotify, which is the best?
We have a whole guide on Spotify if you want to see all that the service has to offer, but what really differentiates Spotify from other streaming services like Amazon Music are its social features. Well, that and the lack of high-resolution streaming.
You can read our Amazon Music vs Spotify breakdown, but if you want to know pricing, Amazon Music costs Unlimited costs $7.99/month for prime members or $9.99/month for non-Prime members. Spotify costs $9.99/month, but it also has its Duo tier, which lets you share the account with one other person for $12.99/month. Both services have a student tier for $4.99/month.
I'm giving Amazon Music a full-on try due to the closure of Google Play Music.
I have an Amazon Prime subscription so that should be enough to try everything out but my problem is all the purchased stuff from GPM. I've discovered I can no longer upload stuff so I've downloaded it all to the Music folder on my phone but I can't get Amazon Music to see it.
So I tend to listen to albums. Recently thats only an option sometimes. Other times it will instead try to play a playlist instead of the song I've picked. But not all the time. Can anyone explain how it makes this decision. On a side note I think I'm done with this app. Absalutly insane that I pay a stupid monthly bill and can't always listen to the songs I want to.
I've been a Prime member for 10+ years, but never used the music service. Last week I downloaded the app on my phoe and started listening. I have used Pandora, but I thought I'd try this and I thought it was included in Prime. The next day I got an email stating: "Your subscription costs $0.00 for the first 3 months and then $9.99 per month after,"
I thought it was included? Is there a "lite" version I am thinking of, or one with commercials or something?
