Shopping online is more popular than ever, and few destinations are as universally praised as Amazon. The retailer carries nearly every product under the sun, making it a one-stop shop for all your consumer needs. Whether you're searching for a new gaming laptop or a fancy robot vacuum, there's a good chance you'll find what you need at Amazon.

Most online shoppers have probably heard of Amazon Prime -- a monthly subscription service that gets you free two-day shipping, among other perks -- though you may have been put off by its hefty fees. Despite the monthly fee (which seems to grow larger every year), anyone who uses Amazon a few times a month will find the service to be a worthwhile investment. Coupled with access to Prime Video and Prime Reading, there's a lot of value packed into Amazon Prime.

Forget Spotify & Apple Music: Get 3 months of Amazon Music for FREE

A couple of the more popular music subscription services are Spotify and Apple Music, but Amazon also has a streaming music service. It’s called Amazon Music Unlimited, and right now you can get three months of the service entirely for free. Amazon Music Unlimited typically costs $11 per month, or $10 per month for Prime members, so these three free months free are worth up to a $33 value. There’s no strings attached, though you’ll need to remember to cancel your subscription when your three free months are up if you don’t want to be billed for future use.

Why you should get Amazon Music Unlimited
Amazon Music Unlimited is a great subscription for audiophiles to consider, as it puts a lot of emphasis on high quality audio. With an Amazon Music Unlimited subscription you get access to more than 100 million songs in high definition and millions of songs in Ultra HD. It has a growing catalog of music mastered in Dolby Atmos and 360 Reality Audio. These are all great technologies for experiencing music at a deeper level, making road trips, workouts, and daily commutes more immersive and entertaining.
