$5 digital albums on Amazon.com

Postby Caliana » Thu Dec 04, 2014 3:47 am

Trevalin started playing Lindsey Stirling as I logged off, and that reminded me that I meant to post this. The very same album Shatter Me is on is a $5 digital album on amazon, one of many albums that are on sale right now. Check it out! I loaded up on a few >.>

Decided to pop on and buy a few of these, and then I got all excited when I realized I have Amazon Prime & there is a ton of free music on there. However, it all downloaded to an amazon music cloud or something. :( i don't suppose there is a way to connect that to winamp to use it, is there? Not sure how legalities would work with all that so just wanted to check.

I tried the trial version of Amazon Prime because it talked about all the music you could get for $99/year and I thought that was worth looking into. I tried an album and at that point ran into the fine print where it talks about only being streamed through their player/app thing on my PC or through portable devices (smart phones, etc.). To my knowledge it specifically can't be accessed from outside players, probably to keep people like me from downloading the entire prime library over the course of a year ;) Wish they could've mentioned that before I messed with it but it wasn't a big deal to sign up for and then terminate the trial thing.

P.S. I bought probably around $170+ of music from them over the last couple weeks, most of it around $5/album.

I picked up like... 3 or 4 albums.. got pissed because I bought Halestorm, but elected to pay 7.99 because the $5 was the "clean" version, only to discover for that a dollar LESS I could have gotten the deluxe version, which had the 4 extra songs, including the group version of "Here's To Us" :crazy:

I discovered several other albums that i would have bought, then realized "oh wait, I have that in a milkcrate in my closet" and will now be ripping quite a few CDs I haven't listened to in years to my computer >.>

There should be an option to download anything on your Amazon cloud through the Amazon Music app/player/thingie.

I ended up buying a bunch of individual songs and not even taking advantage of the sale. Haha. I did get a couple of songs for $.69 though! Super excited about that deal.
