Amazon Music
Amazon Music is Amazon’s desktop music and podcast app for streaming, library access, and offline listening on Mac.
What is Amazon Music?
Amazon Music is a desktop streaming app from Amazon for listening to music and podcasts on macOS. It is published by Amazon and works with Amazon Music services, including free listening options, Prime member features, and Amazon Music Unlimited subscriptions. The desktop app is used to browse the catalog, play albums, playlists, stations, and podcasts, and access a personal library tied to an Amazon account. Amazon documents support for Windows and Mac desktop use, offline downloads in supported plans, HD and Ultra HD playback on compatible Mac hardware, and Exclusive Mode for audio playback. Users commonly encounter it after installing Amazon’s music app directly for desktop listening instead of using only the web player. It is a normal consumer media application rather than a system component.
