If you want to make your PowerPoint presentations more engaging, adding background music is a great way to do it. But can you add Amazon Music directly to PowerPoint? The answer is not exactly — Amazon Music is a streaming service, and its tracks are protected by DRM, which means you can't simply insert them into slides like a normal audio file.
Don't worry! In this guide, we'll cover 3 practical ways to add Amazon Music to PowerPoint with recording, link, and actual Amazon Music audio file, plus a bonus section on how to adjust playback options for the best presentation experience.
Method 1: Record Amazon Music and Add to PowerPoint
Best for: Short clips or temporary background music.
PowerPoint doesn't support streaming Amazon Music, but you can record the music while it plays on your computer and insert the recording into your slides.
Step 1 Launch PowerPoint, then open or create a presentation.
Step 2 To record audio for your slide, select "Insert" > "Audio" > "Record Audio".
Step 3 An "Record Sound" dialogue box will open in your presentation. Name the "Recorded Sound".
Step 4 Now you click on the "Record" button and then begin to playing the Amazon Music song you want from the Amazon Music app or Amazon Music web player.
Step 5 When you're done recording, click the "Stop" button and the "Play" button to listen to the Amazon Music recording.
Step 6 If you want to rerecord the desired Amazon Music song, you can click the "Record" button again. Or if you're satisfied with the recording, click OK to add the audio to your slide.
Now the audio will play automatically when the slide show is presented. You can also go to the Part 4 to learn how to change playback options.
What if you don't have a microphone to record the Amazon Music song then add it to your slide. Or you're disappointed with the audio quality? No worries. There's one more method to add Amazon Music to your PowerPoint presentation without limits.
Method 2: Insert Downloaded Amazon Music as Audio on PC or Mac
Best for: High-quality background music and offline playback.
If you want your presentation to sound professional, converting Amazon Music to a PowerPoint-compatible format (like MP3 or WAV) is the best option.
While the Amazon Music recordings can be not satisfying, you can use the Amazon Music downloads to insert it to your slide with better audio quality. However, even you have the access to the download service and download the desired Amazon Music songs, the music files are DRM protected and only supported in the Amazon Music app. To download Amazon Music for PowerPoint, you'll need a powerful 3-party tool to help download the DRM-free Amazon Music files.

You just need to adjust some format settings to choose the audio files format supported in PowerPoint like MP3 or WAV.
