What's the catch?įrom what I've seen so far, there is no catch. Note that Cloud Player also allows you to upload your physical music to your storage locker, but these files will count against your overall storage allowance. So all AutoRip albums come entirely free of charge. In another bonus for music buyers, digital copies of albums added to Cloud Player by AutoRip will not count against your storage limit. Even so, Amazon reckons that more than 350,000 albums are included and are easily identifiable by the AutoRip logo (which consists of a blue and a green arrow).Īs AutoRip grows, Amazon aims to add more titles and record labels to its range. Of course, not all albums are eligible for AutoRip, because not all recording labels have licensed this content to Amazon. They can also be streamed without downloading to devices via Cloud Player, allowing music to be played on iOS, Android, Kindle Fire and other devices at home or on the move. Once added to your Cloud Player locker, these digital albums can be downloaded as 256Kbps MP3 files for playing on various devices, including PCs, laptops, tablets and mobile phones. In effect, Amazon is giving its UK customers 14 years of digital music, totally free of charge. In fact, AutoRip will give you free digital copies of all eligible albums purchased from Amazon since 1999. AutoRip doesn't add albums bought from Amazon Marketplace sellers.Įven better, this doesn't just apply to current and future purchases from AutoRip's launch date. What AutoRip does is both simple and powerful: when you buy a physical version of an album from the site (either as a CD, vinyl album or cassette), Amazon adds a free digital copy to your Cloud Player storage. Amazon has rolled out its AutoRip service to UK customers, giving them free digital copies of physical music bought from the site.AutoRip has been in use in the US since January and has now been released in France, Germany and Italy as well as the UK.
