Now that you'll be aware of Amazon's full library, you may want to have instant access to any song you want. This expanded music library feels like Amazon's latest gambit to get people to cough up $9 per month for Amazon Music Unlimited.

Analysis: Amazon Music is still looking to get you to pay more There's also another new feature: Podcast Previews, which lets you get 'a short, digestible soundbite from a podcast episode,' so you can check out a show before you commit to a whole episode. That's not the only news of the day: Amazon Music is now taking ads out of 'most top Podcasts.' This is, it says, 'the largest selection of ad-free top podcasts available,' and the announcement includes podcasts from CNN, ESPN, The New York Times and the whole Wondery catalogue (with shows like My Favorite Murder, Smartless and How I Built This). Here we will walk you through the steps of downloading Amazon Music songs as local files so that you can keep them playable even after the subscription expires.In other words, Amazon Music Shuffle Mode basically now presents Prime members with the entire music catalogue - with whole artist discographies, albums and playlists - but only puts a shuffle button, not a play button, at your disposal. Even if you have downloaded Amazon Music songs during the subscription, they are all cache files encrypted with DRM, which makes it impossible to keep forever, unless you can find a way to download Amazon Music as local files and convert them to normal audio formats. In other words, once the subscription ends, you’ll lose access to all of the songs. Any Amazon Music titles you've added to My Music are grayed out, with playback options removed. The question is, can I still have access to the downloaded Amazon Music tracks after canceling the subscription? Unfortunately, the answer is No.

Whatever could be the reason, you have decided to cancel the Amazon Music subscription finally. Perhaps, you’ve used Amazon Music Prime or Unlimited for a while, but now you may find that you no longer enjoy what Amazon Music service has to offer, or you’ve run out of money and need a Free plan to save your wallet.
