Amazon Music Prime expands to 100 million songs – an increase from the previous 2 million – giving Prime members access in shuffle mode, ad-free, and at no additional cost to their membership.
Prime members will also get access to top podcasts ad-free and on demand, including shows they already know and love from Crowd Network and The New York Times. Ad-free shows include the +44 Podcast, binge-worthy podcasts from Wondery including British Scandal, Who Killed Daphne, SmartLess, Morbid, My Favorite Murder and Even the Rich, and Amazon Exclusive shows including Three Little Words, Built To Thrive and the MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark & Mysterious Stories.
Prime members can discover more new music and podcasts based on their likes; shuffle play any artist, album, or playlist in the catalogue; stream a collection of All-Access playlists tailored to personalised listening preferences on demand and download them for offline listening. Members can also upgrade to the Amazon Music Unlimited tier to enjoy on-demand access to albums, playlists, and over 100 million songs in HD and a growing catalogue of songs in Ultra HD and Spatial audio. Prime members can get the Amazon Music app here to begin streaming.
Steve Boom, VP of Amazon Music said, “When Amazon Music first launched for Prime members, we offered an ad-free catalogue of 2 million songs, which was completely unique for music streaming at the time. We continue to innovate on behalf of our customers, and to bring even more entertainment to Prime members, on top of the convenience and value they already enjoy. We can’t wait for members to experience not only a massively expanded catalogue of songs, but also the largest selection of ad-free top podcasts anywhere, at no additional cost to their membership.”
