Part 3. How to Get Amazon Music as Local Files

Currently, many Amazon users are overwhelmed by the bad functionality of the download service in Amazon Music.

The best solution is to download the tracks you want to your computer with a third-party tool, then you can transfer them to other devices such as MP3 Player and Sonos for offline-playing. In case you get into trouble finding a reliable and professional tool, we recommend Amazon Music downloader.

Bonus Tip: How to Transfer Amazon Music to Other Music Platforms

For some people, the tracks in Amazon Music are wonderful but the playback mode or the interface of Spotify or other music platforms may be more enjoyable. In this case, transferring Amazon Music to other music platforms is a good choice. We will take Spotify as an example. Here we recommend a useful tool called Soundiiz.

To use Soundiiz, navigate to the soundiiz.com and click on the "Get started now" button. Log in using your Twitter, Apple, or other accounts. Create an account and connect your streaming services. Then, select the playlist you want to transfer and choose the destination platform. Start the transfer and wait for confirmation, after which you can verify the playlist on the target service.

Soundiiz is very convenient for those who are unwilling to download any extra software. However, it is an online website which relies on a strong internet connection, so occasional bugs or glitches may disrupt the transfer process due to a poor internet connection. In this case, ViWizard Amazon Music Converter is more recommended for its dedicated features and stability. Feel free to have a try as it won't disappoint you.
