Amazon Music Unlimited debuts in India with HD audio, offline downloads and ad-free listening

Amazon has introduced a new premium music subscription in India called Amazon Music Unlimited, bringing a fresh listening option for users who want higher audio quality, ad-free playback and offline access. With this launch, Amazon Music Unlimited is now the only paid subscription tier available on Amazon Music in the country.

The move also reshapes how Amazon Music is offered in India, with users now able to choose between three different listening experiences depending on their needs and budget.

What changes for Amazon Music users?

Amazon says the new setup is designed to offer listeners more flexibility. While Amazon Music Unlimited sits at the top as the premium offering, Prime members will continue to get access to Amazon Music as part of their membership. A free version of the service is also set to arrive soon.

According to the company, Amazon Music Unlimited includes access to more than 100 million songs and podcasts with no advertisements. Subscribers also get offline downloads and advanced audio features such as HD, Ultra HD and Spatial Audio, including Dolby Atmos support.

The service is priced at ₹99 per month for Prime members and ₹119 per month for non-Prime users.
