Amazon is offering a free trial of its premium music streaming service, Amazon Music Unlimited, with three months' worth of content available without charge to new subscribers. The promotion includes access to lossless streaming and podcasts, although it's worth noting that the service still lags behind other popular music platforms like Apple Music and Spotify in terms of discovery features.
However, for those who do sign up, they'll be able to take advantage of Amazon's vast library of music without paying a penny. The catch is that after three months are up, the subscription will automatically renew at a monthly rate of $12 - although existing Prime members can expect to pay just $11 per month.
It's also worth noting that Amazon Music Unlimited is more expensive than some alternative options like YouTube Music and Tidal, especially when not paired with an Amazon Prime membership. On the other hand, Spotify Premium is offering a similar free trial period right now, with four months' worth of music available to new subscribers who have never previously paid for the service.
For those looking to try out Amazon Music Unlimited before committing to a subscription, this deal is definitely worth considering - especially if you already own an Alexa device and want to make use of its integration. Just be sure to check the terms and conditions before signing up, as there may be some hidden costs or restrictions in place.

! BUT FOR REAL THOUGH, IF YOU'RE NOT PRETTY SURE ABOUT GETTING A SUBSCRIPTION AFTER 3 MONTHS, IT'S BEST TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT YOU SIGN UP FOR. I MEAN, $12/MONTH ISN'T CHEAP, AND WHEN YOU FACTOR IN THE PRIME MEMBERSHIP DISCOUNT, IT'S STILL GOTTA FEEL LIKE A STEEP LEAP 
. BUT IF YOU'RE ALREADY AN AMAZON PRIME MEMBER, IT COULD BE WORTH IT TO GET ACCESS TO ALL THAT MUSIC WITHOUT PAYING EXTRA 
.
.
. But I'll def be reading the terms and conditions before signing up, just so I know what I'm getting into 
.
Still, if you're an Alexa owner like me, this could be a great deal... just don't forget to check the fine print before committing 
! Can't they just let people listen to whatever they want without having to subscribe? It's like, I get it, businesses need to make money, but this is getting ridiculous... and now Amazon is trying to tempt me in with a free trial 
. Like, what's the catch? Is it going to automatically renew on me too? 
And $12/month is already crazy! Can't they just price it more like YouTube Music or something? 
!
. But at the same time, I feel like we're already paying enough for our music streaming services as it is 
. And with Spotify and Apple Music offering similar deals, Amazon is kinda playing catch-up in my opinion 
.
. I know it's just business as usual, but it feels like a slippery slope, you know? One minute you're trying out a new service for free, and the next minute your wallet is depleted 
. Like what's the point of even offering them? It's just gonna get you hooked on the music and then they're gonna hit you with the renewal fee 
. But let's be real, the catch is that it'll automatically renew after three months and cost $12 a month - which is pretty steep if you ask me 
.
It's a great way for people to try out their music streaming service without breaking the bank. But let's be real, $12/month is kinda steep, especially when you can get similar deals with other services like Spotify or YouTube Music. Still, if you're already invested in the Alexa ecosystem and want to take advantage of that integration, it might be worth considering... just don't forget to read the fine print!
