# Can I Download Amazon Music to MP3?

Of course, but limited.

For just listening offline - when there's no internet connection in Amazon Music app, the digital music content is not really an issue for both Amazon Prime and Unlimited users. However, when it comes to have the desired contents for more places such as TVs (Samsung/Roku/LG/Vizio/Google), Game Consoles (PS4/PS5/Xbox), Echo devices (Alexa/Sonos) or other applications like DJ software (Virtual DJ/Serato DJ/Traktor DJ/rekordbox) or even the most common USB device, the direct access to the actual files in supported audio formats - such as the universal MP3 - is the most crucial.

Although the download service is available for Prime and Unlimited subscribers, the additional cost of MP3 Music comes for one particular reason - DRM (Digital Rights Management). While the purchased MP3 Music are DRM-free, the downloaded music with subscription tiers are DRM-encoded.
