How to Download Amazon Music to Computer

Amazon Music may not be the first on your lips when you mention music streaming platforms, but it still competes with top guns like Apple Music and Spotify. And with an expansive catalog of songs, some users look for how to download music from Amazon Music to computer for offline listening. Here's how to do so.

Can I Download Music From Amazon Music To My Computer?

As discussed earlier, Amazon Music users may download their favorite tunes to their computer or phone. But this depends on the subscription account you're using on Amazon Music. There are three accounts on Amazon Music for users to pick from. They are Amazon Music Free, Amazon Music Prime, and Amazon Music Unlimited.

Let's look at each account to find out which supports offline music playback and downloads for your computer.

Amazon Music Free

Amazon Music Free is a free trial plan for users to get a feel of the music streaming platform. It is the most basic plan and does not require you to be subscribed to Amazon Prime before you use the application.

• Gives access to a million podcast reels and episodes.
• Huge library of songs and playlists.

• Limited features and supports ads.
• Can only play music on shuffle
• Cannot save songs on any device.

Amazon Music Prime

For those who've had a taste of Amazon Music Free and are tired of the ads that come with it, then as long as you're an Amazon Prime subscriber, you can enjoy Amazon Music Prime for free. With a subscription to Amazon Prime, you get all the perks that come with the account and enjoy the music aspect. Read the differences between Amazon Prime Music and Music Unlimited.

• Ad-free music listening.
• Access to over 100 million songs including podcasts, playlists, and stations.
• Can download and store music as long as Amazon Prime subscription is active.

• Users are still limited to playing music on shuffle mode.
• Can only pick songs, play and download without restrictions with the All-Access Playlists.

Amazon Music Unlimited

This is the premium subscription account to Amazon Music. Amazon Music Unlimited gives users the entire experience that comes with Amazon Music and removes all limitations, including music shuffling.

• You can play and download whatever song you want to play.
• Users can enjoy over 100 million songs in lossless HD format, tracks in Ultra HD quality, all using the FLAX audio codec to give crystal clear sound that rivals even Tidal and Apple Music.

You should note that while songs can be downloaded and played offline on Amazon Music Prime and Amazon Music Unlimited, these songs are DRM-protected and so cannot be played outside the Amazon Music app. So, to enjoy your downloaded songs on your computer, you have to convert your saved songs on Amazon Music to MP3. This way, you can keep your Amazon Music songs on your computer forever. Let's show you how.
