Amazon Music has significantly expanded its offerings for Prime members, giving them access to over 100 million songs ad-free, along with the ability to download music for offline listening. This upgrade lets you enjoy your favorite tracks without an internet connection, whether you're traveling or saving on mobile data.
However, while Amazon Music Prime offers a large catalog, it's still more limited compared to the extensive selection available with Amazon Music Unlimited. It's also important to note that once your Amazon Prime membership ends, any downloaded songs will no longer be accessible.
This guide will walk you through how to download music from Amazon Music Prime, explain the limitations, and compare it with Amazon Music Unlimited. Plus, we'll introduce a new way to download music from Amazon Music without limits: using ViWizard Amazon Music Converter to make the most of your plan.
Part 1. What You Get with Amazon Music Prime
Is Amazon Music Prime's Offline Mode Worth It?
Amazon Music Prime allows you to download music for offline listening, but the selection is limited to All-Access Playlists. These curated playlists offer on-demand content with no skip limits and offline access. However, Prime members can only download these playlists or purchase music through Amazon Music Digital. Recently listened All-Access Playlists are automatically downloaded, and you can toggle this feature on or off by going to Settings > Auto-download All-Access Playlists.
Amazon Music Prime vs. Amazon Music Unlimited
The main difference between Amazon Music Prime and Amazon Music Unlimited lies in the offline playback options. Prime members are limited to 15 curated All-Access Playlists, while Unlimited subscribers have access to a wider selection that can be organized as desired. If you want more control over your offline music, Amazon Music Unlimited offers a more flexible and extensive experience.
