Music streaming industry has seen rapid growth over the past decade. As you can directly stream high sound quality music, downloading music is no longer a necessary move.
But while streaming, it creates cache files that may eat up the internal storage of your device and therefore make it hard to operate. Take Amazon Music as an example, normally, a music stream provided in High Quality can have an average file size of 6 MB at 256 Kbps. And Amazon's Hi-res music streaming even provides CD-quality streams that can reach around 51 MB for a 3 or 4-minute song.
Inevitably, much space on your playback device is occupied whether you are using Amazon Music free or having a paid subscription. For those who use a music playback device that supports SD cards for expanding memory space, storage becomes easy to free up. And this article includes everything you need to know about downloading Amazon Prime/Unlimited Music to an SD card and changing storage for Amazon Music to free up more space on your device.
