Music lovers rejoice! I believe that we all should rejoice because Amazon has just introduced Amazon Music Unlimited. It is Amazon’s on-demand music streaming service that contains tens of millions of songs with new releases from today’s most popular artists, thousands of hand-curated playlists, and personalized stations.

If you are an U.S. Prime member and you already stream more than two million songs with Prime Music, then you are also in luck because with the launch of Amazon Music Unlimited, Prime members who want even more music, will have access to tens of millions of songs at a breakthrough Prime member price of $7.99/month or $79/year.

Of course, being a Prime member is not a mandatory to subscribe to Amazon Music Unlimited because there are 3 Amazon Music Unlimited’s subscriptions available that you can choose from depending on your need:

1. Individual Plan (Standard Plan)

1.1. Individual Plan for Prime Member

Price: $7.99/month or $79.00/year, which equals $6.58/month(*).

1.2. Individual Plan for Non-Prime Member

Access: Tens of millions of songs, thousands of hand-curated playlists, and personalized stations.

2. Echo Plan

Price: $3.99/month(*).

If you decide later that you want to enjoy Amazon Music Unlimited on all of your devices, including iOS, Android, Web, PC, Mac and more, you can upgrade to a standard plan for an additional $4.00/month for Prime members or $6.00/month non-Prime members.
