It’s not just you. More people are quietly switching to Amazon Music Unlimited, and not just because it’s cheaper. Frustration with Spotify’s price hikes and Apple’s Music requires DAC support for full hi-red lossless on Android.
In comparison Amazon’s making a strong case.
You might not see influencers hyping it on TikTok, but Amazon Music Unlimited has been steadily improving, now being one of the best. What started as a budget-friendly afterthought is now one of the most complete music platforms in 2025, offering high-fidelity audio, broad device support, and smart home integration.
Amazon Music Unlimited includes HD (CD quality), Ultra HD (24-bit), and spatial audio (Dolby Atmos/360 Reality Audio) at no additional charge. That’s a major win. Spotify HiFi still isn’t here, and Apple Music only supports hi-res on certain Apple devices.
If sound quality matters to you, or you’re just tired of hearing mushy compressed tracks on Bluetooth, Amazon’s library is worth your time.
If you're a Prime member, Amazon Music Unlimited costs less than Spotify or Apple Music, and you get more for your money.
| Plan | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Amazon Music Unlimited (Prime member) | $8.99/month | Includes HD, Ultra HD, spatial audio |
| Amazon Music Unlimited (non-Prime) | $10.99/month | Still cheaper than Spotify Premium in many regions |
| Spotify Premium | $11.99/month | No HiFi, spatial audio pending |
| Apple Music | $10.99/month | No native Android hi-res audio |
Prices vary regionally.
Even without Prime, Amazon Music is competitively priced, and there’s a free trial running right now.
Amazon Music was built with Alexa in mind. That means instant playback via voice on Echo, Fire TV, smart speakers, and even your car. While Spotify and Apple offer voice control, Amazon’s ecosystem is smoother, faster, and deeply embedded.
You can say things like:
…and it just works.
Amazon Music Unlimited now offers over 100 million tracks, curated playlists, DJ-style radio, podcasts, and exclusive content like artist sessions and remix drops.
It might not be as social as Spotify or as branded as Tidal, but it quietly nails the essentials. And if you’re already using Amazon for shopping, video, or smart home tech, the integration is smooth.

That’s full access to over 100 million songs, HD and Ultra HD audio, and spatial mixes without restrictions. Whether you're testing the waters or ready to switch for good, this is the best time to try it.
