Amazon Music has expanded its offering for Prime members, bringing them an increase from 2 million to 100 million songs and access to top podcasts available ad-free, at no additional cost to their membership.
Prime members can shuffle and play any artist, album, or playlist, plus stream a selection of All-Access playlists on demand. Prime members will also gain access to the largest catalogue of ad-free top podcasts, including the Wondery catalogue and Amazon Original and Exclusives.
Steve Boom, VP of Amazon Music said, “When Amazon Music first launched for Prime members, we offered an ad-free catalog of 2 million songs, which was completely unique for music streaming at the time.
“We continue to innovate on behalf of our customers, and to bring even more entertainment to Prime members, on top of the convenience and value they already enjoy. We can’t wait for members to experience not only a massively expanded catalog of songs, but also the largest selection of ad-free top podcasts anywhere, at no additional cost to their membership.”
Prime members can now listen to the top podcasts ad-free and on demand. Ad-free shows include the Wondery catalog of premium podcasts including Dr. Death and SmartLess, and new Amazon Exclusive shows including MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark & Mysterious Stories; Suspect: Vanished in the Snow; COLD Season 3: The Search for Sheree; Killer Psyche Daily; and I Hear Fear, narrated by Academy Award-nominated actress Carey Mulligan.
Additionally, today is also the global premiere of the Amazon Exclusive podcast series Baby, this is Keke Palmer, from the actress and multi-hyphenate entrepreneur Keke Palmer (NOPE). Prime members can join Palmer each week as she geeks out with friends, family, celebrity guests, and some esteemed experts, and journey down the rabbit hole into her insatiable quest for answers, opinions, and the tea on everything.
Prime members will now be able to stream even more music than ever before, with an expanded catalog of more than 100 million songs—up from 2 million—entirely ad-free.
