6 Methods to Download Amazon Music to MP3/FLAC (2025 Latest Guide)

I’ve been a paying Amazon Music user since 2017. In early 2025, the service raised prices again; Prime members now pay $10.99 / month for Unlimited, up from $9.99, according to The Verge. At the same time, Prime Music cut back: you can only download All-Access playlists, not single tracks. If you opened the app today hoping to grab a new album for your flight, you probably found a greyed-out Download button.

This article shows every working route, from the official shuffle-only method to third-party tools that give you permanent MP3 or FLAC files, so you can pick what fits your budget, device, and risk tolerance.

1. Four Download Options: Amazon Music Official or Third-Party Converters

1.1 Prime Music (Limited Access)

Prime members get 100 million songs, but on-demand downloads are limited to 15-50-track All-Access
lists. And those downloads come with the restriction that you can only play them in shuffle mode. That means if you want a specific track, you won’t be able to download it unless it’s part of one of the pre-made playlists.

Best for: Casual listening when you don’t mind the shuffle feature.

Limitations: Only specific playlists are downloadable, and those downloads expire after 30 days.

1.2 Amazon Music Unlimited  (Full Access)

Unlimited unlocks full on-demand, HD and Ultra HD (up to 24-bit/192 kHz) and Dolby Atmos.Similar to streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music, the subscription-based offline downloads of Amazon Music are also encrypted and saved, and can only be played within the Amazon app.

Best for: People who want to have full access to the catalog and need the best sound quality for offline listening.

Limitations: Offline files still expire if your subscription lapses.

1.3 Purchased MP3s

Buying MP3s (mostly $1.29 each) delivers 256-kbps files, you may redownload anytime, and you can keep them forever.

Best For: Anyone who wants to own music permanently.

Limitations: You don't get access to the entire Amazon Music catalog. Not all songs are available in downloadable MP3 format. Some tracks are not available for purchase and download.

1.4 Third-Party Converters

Amazon Music Converter records or downloads audio into plain files. Legality depends on local law; you can only use them for personal, backup purposes.

Best For: Users who want to have more control over their music, converting Amazon Music tracks in multiple formats (like MP3, FLAC, WAV) with high-quality audio output at a faster speed.

Limitations: paid or require installation
