Two Ways to Transfer Amazon Music to iTunes
Currently, there are many different streaming music services you can choose from, like Spotify, Amazon Music, or Apple Music. You may be using multiple music platforms at the same time. Or you've been using the same music application such as Amazon Music for years, but now want to try Apple Music. It is inconvenient to switch music accounts back and forth when playing various songs. Why not consider combining different music resources into one? You can choose to move music from Amazon music to iTunes. So how to transfer Amazon Music playlists or songs to iTunes and keep them playable even when we cancel the Amazon Music subscription?
Here we will introduce two useful methods in this passage. One is to directly add purchased Amazon Music to the iTunes library, the other is to move all Amazon Unlimited & Prime Music content to iTunes with NoteCable. Wonder more details? Let's explore how to transfer Amazon Music to iTunes now.
Method 1. Upload Purchased Amazon Music to iTunes Library Directly
If you buy digital music from Amazon, you can download music from Amazon to store them locally and then import them to another media player like iTunes. Because Amazon sells these songs as open MP3 files without encryption, you can also download and easily add them to your iTunes library for playback or management using a computer. Follow the steps below and access your Amazon Music purchases in iTunes.
Step 1: Firstly open Amazon Music on your computer and select Library and click on "Songs" > "Purchased" option. You will see all the music you own.
Step 2: Next, Click the download icon next to the song or album. As the purchased Amazon Music has been downloaded in MP3 format, you can import the local files to iTunes directly.
Step 3: Simply launch iTunes and navigate to "File" > "Add File to Library" or "Add Folder to Library", then select the downloaded purchased Amazon Music for importing the songs to iTunes. Just a moment, they will be all uploaded to the iTunes library for local backup successfully.
It's easy enough as Amazon allows you to enjoy music purchased from Amazon Music on iTunes without any limitations. You can add Amazon Music to iTunes directly. But for streaming songs on the Amazon Music app, it's a little bit tricky, as we can not directly download Amazon Prime & Unlimited Music as local audio files from the app (because they are encrypted in special formats). That means all these titles can only be accessed and played within the Amazon Music app or web player, and can’t be exported for use on other apps and devices.
But no worries, in the following part, we will share you with an excellent Amazon Music Downloader to help you download songs or playlists from Amazon Music to your computer as local files. After that, you can transfer Amazon playlists to the iTunes library easily.
