How do i play my amazon music through rune audio?

Having searched both the forum and Google, it seems there is no solution at present and not on the development road-map either at present.

Add it to the 'Feature Request' section for future consideration.

Amazon is apparenty releasing ”HD Music” streaming. So I second the Amazon streaming feature request.

Hi bnilsson, LeighP & Jedster,

I would also like to include this, but unfortunately I don’t see it happening. Amazon Music streaming uses Google DRM Widevine as digital rights management and encryption. Google refuses to licence DRM Widevine to open source projects, see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Widevine
There are some KODI installations for Amazon music streaming which seem to use a dummy account, which suggests that it is illegal. This is not a route that we will be following
A project which reverse engineered Amazon Music streaming has been developed, see here: https://github.com/Jaffa/amazon-music But this has not been updated recently and the issue list suggests that it no longer works.
If anyone has suggestions please post them.

Actually it is as good as free, and that also without Ads. People already have Amazon prime subscription, and that is not for Amazon music. So when amazon announced a new service named Amazon Prime Music as additional benefit to Amazon Prime customer. For me it is free. Because I never wanted it, and I am a Prime member. I was using Wynk Music at that time and that also paid subscription to remove ads.
I never expected amazon to provide me a free service for Music Streaming. So when I got it it is a free service for me, because I do not have to pay anything for this. So why should I use another paid service or ad supported service, when I am getting the better features without paying anything extra.
