Amazon Cloud Drive Now Includes Unlimited Music Storage

On Wednesday, Amazon announced some interesting improvements to its cloud-based music service Amazon Cloud Drive. The online retailer added unlimited storage space for music, free storage for all Amazon MP3 purchases and a web app for iPad.

“Customers are already enjoying Cloud Drive and Cloud Player and now for just $20 a year, customers can get unlimited space for music,” Craig Pape Director of Amazon Music, said in a statement. “Additionally, we are adding free storage for all MP3s purchased from Amazon MP3, and support for the iPad. Our customers love Cloud Drive and Cloud Player and we’re excited to innovate these services on their behalf.”

Amazon said that, for a limited time, users who subscribe to a Cloud Drive storage plan for $20/year which gives them 20 GB of file storage will get unlimited space for MP3s and AAC music files for no additional cost. In addition, Amazon has also announced that all Amazon MP3s purchases will be stored for free in Cloud Drive as well. The offer covers MP3s purchases made before the launch of Cloud Drive as well as future purchases.  “MP3s purchased from Amazon MP3 and stored in Amazon Cloud Drive will not count against a customer’s storage quota,” Amazon said.

Amazon also introduced Cloud Player for Web on iPad, enabling Cloud Drive customers to play music stored in the cloud from their Apple tablets. “Cloud Player for Web has been optimized to offer customers streaming playback of their Cloud Drive music using the Safari browser for iPad,” Amazon said.

Online retail giant launched Cloud Drive and Cloud Player for Web and Android back in March. Its cloud-based music services enable customers to store music in the cloud securely and play it on any Android device, Mac or PC, and now iPad, from any location and at any time.
