So, I’m doing some research for a project in college and I am focusing on amazon music.

• amazon music had a big redesign in 2019 – users have mixed opinions

• amazon music has around 100 million songs and 5 million podcasts to listen to, amazon music live events, exclusive podcasts, desktop and mobile apps, easily connects to devices, pretty similar subscription plans to other music streaming apps

And I’m wondering…

• what is your opinion on amazon music?

• would you say amazon music is “cool” or “trendy” or rather something for a more mature audience?

• how do you like the current design?

• what music streaming platforms are you using if not amazon music?

thanks in advance!

    It’s fine.
    Recommendation tends to be pretty consistent too.

    But in the end using YT music, because I have YT prem.
    Also the ability to switch account (channel) is ultra nice, so that I can put hard barrier on the genre I want to listen / recommend.

    Its buggy as fuck and ive given up hope they will ever fix it. I still pay for amazon music unlimited, but it’s only because I’ve spent so many years building my playlists and I’m too lazy to try and export them to a fully functional service. I also use Qobuz and Tidal occasionally. But my thoughts on amazon music are that they have the same philosophy as they do on their Amazon Prime video apps. That app is also dog shit when you compare it to others, but Amazon don’t give a fuck about making it better, coz why should they?

    It’s quite good tbh, I found they don’t have a lot of old trance classic songs that I have on apple music but it’s good, sounds good and have no issues with the app. It’s good to try if u can get it cheap like a little trial thing
