Amazon Music HD is the new premium music streaming tier from Amazon and promises millions of quality lossless audio tracks.

To celebrate its release, Amazon is currently offering a 90-day trial to new customers. This is a great opportunity for those interested in Amazon Music Unlimited and want to try out the service before committing.

Currently available in the UK, US, Germany, Austria, and Japan, the normal monthly price of the service is £14.99. Once the trial expires your subscription will revert back to this price, but you can cancel at any time, so there's no risk of getting charged if you want to opt-out.

Amazon Music HD — Free 90-Day Trial

Amazon's standalone streaming music service provides an intriguing alternative to the many competing products on the market, especially for people who own Echo or Fire TV hardware.

The extensive Amazon library features over 50 million tracks in HD and millions of tracks in Ultra HD. Amazon’s HD audio features songs at an average of 850 kbps, while the Ultra HD boosts this up to 3750 kbps. According to Amazon, that’s more than ten times the standard bitrate of other streaming services.

This high-quality audio service is perfect for fans seeking the very best in musical streaming services, and the 90-day trial provides the perfect opportunity to see if it suits your ears.

The chance to pick up this free trial will expire after November 7, 2019, and is only available to new Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers.

My Experience

I’ve been freelancing as a tech journalist for several years now, after long wanting to write about my passion for video games. I have bylines on Kotaku and other sites, but PCMag is where you can find most of my musings on gaming, its culture, and where the industry is going next. I also test online services for both businesses and individuals. If you’re interested in hearing me talk about entertainment, film, and TV, you can check out my Patreon and Substack, both under the name “Robby Knows.”

The Technology I Use 

Most of the tech I use every day is within the Apple ecosystem. Currently, I rely on a 2025 MacBook Air for computing and dabble in art projects on my 6th-generation iPad Mini. I don't go anywhere without my AirPods Pro 2 in my pocket. 

As an avid gamer, you better believe that I always have a controller in my hands if I’m not watching movies or TV. I use my PS5 and Switch 2 equally, depending on what’s the hot new release, and am always trying to find interesting ways to tinker with my Steam Deck.  

Given the current state of social media and technology, I find myself going more analog to escape the noise. I have a modest collection of watches, both automatic and digital, to free myself from the pings and notifications of the modern world. I also put my phone in a ySky lockbox for 12 hours every night to reduce my screen time. I spent a lot of the past year trying to read good books rather than scroll through feeds.
