    Earlier today I received an email from Amazon that included, "going forward, there will be no extra charge for HD as part of your Amazon Music Unlimited subscription." That's a $5 per month price drop. I checked and this is legit. Will be down to $7.99 for HD. I'm less than thrilled that Amazon Music Unlimited playlists can't be organized into folders, but I deal with it in my own way. And for that price, I'll keep dealing.

    Amazon could drop it to free and I still wouldn't use a music streaming service from Amazon.

    Comments like this are why Jeff Bezos no longer posts here.

    The Amazon streaming service would have been better designed if Bezos did post here and had hired an audiophile from here or AudiophileStyle who understands high-res and computer playback. But as it is the Amazon service was poorly done. Both for sound quality and curation and organization of content. And Amazon continues to be clueless about how to do this.

    Steve Jobs was an audiophile and Apple did well with iPods and iTunes back then. It's obvious that Bezos isn't an audiophile and probably doesn't even have a stereo other than the in-wall speakers on his mega yacht.

    Nice!

    I'm sure this news has nothing at all to do with Apple's announcement.

    :)
