Usually, no — if you already pay for Spotify, Amazon Music Unlimited is usually not worth adding as a second full-price music subscription. A fair way to think about it is:

  • Spotify: about $11.99/month for an individual plan in many markets, and it’s the better default for most people.
  • Amazon Music Unlimited: typically about $10.99–$11.99/month for an individual plan, but it can be cheaper with Prime-linked pricing or promos.
  • Best value if you want both: only if you can get Amazon Music Unlimited for around $0–$5/month net via a bundle, trial, or limited-time offer.

For most listeners, Spotify is the stronger all-around choice because of its playlists, recommendations, social features, app polish, and wide device support. Amazon Music Unlimited makes sense mainly if you want Alexa/Echo integration, you’re deep in the Amazon ecosystem, or you specifically care about lossless/hi-res audio and have gear that can use it.

Short caveat: prices and promo eligibility change often, so check current plans and sold/completed-style deal equivalents before paying for both.

Best practical call: keep Spotify as your main subscription and only add Amazon Music Unlimited if one of its specific advantages matters enough to you to justify the extra monthly cost.
