Do you have several people at home (or in your circle of friends) who listen to music every day, and want to avoid paying for multiple separate subscriptions? Amazon Music Unlimited Family is designed for just that: one subscription, multiple accounts, and everyone keeps their own recommendations, playlists, and artists.

In this guide, we take a close look at the Amazon Music Unlimited family subscription: price, number of accounts, simultaneous listening, devices, offline functionality, and, most importantly, when it's worth it.

1. Amazon Music Unlimited Family: what exactly is it?

Amazon Music Unlimited is Amazon Music's "full" offering: a very large catalog, on-demand listening, no ads, and offline mode. The Family option adds a key feature: multiple profiles can enjoy it under the same subscription.

According to Amazon, the Family plan allows up to six members to enjoy the benefits of Amazon Music Unlimited (monthly or annual subscription).

What does this mean in practical terms?

  • Each person uses their own account/profile (no need to share a single common library).
  • Everyone keeps:
    • his playlists,
    • its history,
    • its recommendations,
    • their downloaded tracks for offline listening.

2. Price of Amazon Music Unlimited Family offer (France)

Prices change regularly (promotions, free trials, adjustments). To date, several French sources estimate the monthly price of Amazon Music Unlimited Family to be around €21.24/month.

To put it in context:

  • Amazon Music Unlimited (individual) is listed at €12.14/month and €121.40/year in the Amazon Music FAQ.

Key point: the real advantage of the Family version is the cost sharing (up to 6 users). At €21.24/month, the cost per person drops to around €3.54/month if the subscription is "full" (6 seats used).

3. How many accounts and how many simultaneous streams?

3.1. Up to 6 people on the Family package

Amazon presents the package as allowing six members to take advantage of the offer.

3.2. Simultaneous listening on multiple devices

In practice, the expected advantage of a family plan is that everyone can listen at the same time. Amazon states that the Family plan allows streaming on up to 6 devices simultaneously.

4. Which devices are compatible?

Amazon Music Unlimited works for most "traditional" uses:

  • smartphone (iOS/Android),
  • computer (via app or browser, as applicable),
  • tablets,
  • compatible connected speakers (including the Amazon ecosystem),
  • Compatible TVs/boxes (depending on available applications).

The idea is simple: each member logs in with their account and listens on their devices.

5. Offline mode: listen without a connection (very useful when on the move)

If you choose Amazon Music Unlimited Family, it's often because you listen to music a lot on the go: on public transportation, at the gym, while traveling, or in areas without network coverage.

Offline mode consists of:

  • download albums/playlists over Wi-Fi,
  • then listen without data or network,
  • avoid interruptions and save 4G/5G data.

This is one of the major differences between "occasional" listening and daily use.

6. Amazon Music Prime, “Standard,” Unlimited: what are the main differences?

Amazon offers several levels of service. Recent French comparisons generally include:

  • an offer included with Prime (music access, but more limited),
  • “Standard” offers,
  • and Amazon Music Unlimited (the most comprehensive, "on-demand" service, designed to compete with Spotify/Deezer).

The important point: if your goal is to choose your tracks, create playlists, skip tracks without frustration, and use offline mode comfortably, then Unlimited (and therefore Unlimited Family) is the best choice for you.

7. Is it profitable? (and for whom)

The Amazon Music Unlimited Family offer becomes attractive in these very specific cases:

There are three of you listening every day.

Even with three people, the cost per person is significantly lower than several individual subscriptions.

There are 4 to 6 of you (family, couple + teenagers, roommates)

This is where the "price per person" becomes excellent: you share a premium service instead of multiplying subscriptions.

You want to centralize a "music" budget that is skyrocketing

Many households already combine:

  • a music platform,
  • 1 to 2 video platforms,
  • sometimes a language or meditation app, etc.

The question is no longer "take out another subscription," but optimize the whole package.

8. Reduce costs without hassle: shared subscriptions (makes sense with a Family plan)

If you are interested in Amazon Music Unlimited Family, it's because you already understand the concept: multiple users, one shared bill.

The problem is that in real life, managing sharing "by hand" quickly becomes tedious:

  • Who pays for what?
  • Who is reviving whom?
  • How can I avoid forgetting to make transfers?
  • How can you share securely and keep the relationship simple?

This is precisely the advantage of a co-subscription platform like Spliiit: it allows you to split the cost of a multi-user subscription (such as a Family plan, where available), manage payments, and simplify the process of connecting with others. The result: you can enjoy Amazon Music Unlimited Family (and often other services) on a tighter budget, without having to juggle arrangements with friends or family.
