In some insane move, Amazon recently replaced their decade old mp3 buying UI with Amazon Music. In the process, they got rid of the 30s samples. Egregiously, there's now no way to listen to music before you buy it unless you sign up for Amazon Music! You can't even confirm it's the song you think it is!
The icing on the cake is there's a listen button on the album and each track, which when clicked plays a _random unrelated_ song. Sometimes I feel like I'm living in an alternate dimension.
Amazon was the only music store offering some major artist music I could use (not buying a Mac just to buy stuff on iTunes), not sure how I'll get music now.

- NERD_ALERT 4y agoiTunes doesn’t exist anymore because people don’t purchase music this way. For better or for worse, Spotify and Apple Music are how people consume music now.
- recursv_thnkng 4y agoWhat do you mean? iTunes still exists. It’s separate from Music but you can still boot up iTunes (pc/MacOS/ iOS) and still search, sample, buy everything as you did before.
