Part 1. Amazon Music DRM Protection - What's the Fix?

#1. What Is DRM Protection?

Digital Rights Management (DRM) is the management of legal access to digital content. These technologies attempt to control what a user can do and can't do with the media. Regrading streaming music services - such as Amazon Music, DRM technologies are adopted to protect the use of their music contents from abuse use. Even user has subscribe to the music service, the music service provides the limited access to its exclusives.

#2. Are Amazon Music Downloads DRM-free?

Amazon has created a vast music catalog for its subscribers (for both Amazon Music Unlimited or Amazon Prime Music) to stream online and download offline. However, the Amazon Music downloads along with the subscription fee are still DRM-encoded and almost impossible to be located on the device as the actual files, so users would fail to share them to the non-authorized devices and platforms.

Opposite to streaming music from Amazon Music, purchases from the Amazon Music Digital Store make much senses for a number of reasons - one is about DRM. Yes. Amazon Music purchases such as MP3s are DRM-free, which means the purchased tracks can be kept and put on whatever device. Even the Amazon Music subscription is canceled, ended or expired, the access to the Amazon Music purchases won't disappear.
