Analysis: Amazon Music is still looking to get you to pay more

There's also another new feature: Podcast Previews, which lets you get "a short, digestible soundbite from a podcast episode," so you can check out a show before you commit to a whole episode. That's not the only news of the day: Amazon Music is now taking ads out of "most top Podcasts." This is, it says, "the largest selection of ad-free top podcasts available," and the announcement includes podcasts from CNN, ESPN, The New York Times and the whole Wondery catalogue (with shows like My Favorite Murder, Smartless and How I Built This). In other words, Amazon Music Shuffle Mode basically now presents Prime members with the entire music catalogue - with whole artist discographies, albums and playlists - but only puts a shuffle button, not a play button, at your disposal.
