Amazon's next big deals event is here — the Prime Early Access Sale kicked off on October 11 and ends soon. The 48-hour affair is basically Amazon's fall version of Prime Day, and it's brought thousands of discounts on everything, from electronics to toys, for the gifting season.
Amazon is offering some great promotions for Prime members, including not one, but two Amazon Music Unlimited offers. Ending tonight, newcomers to Amazon Music Unlimited can get up to four months free, or the chance to get a third-gen Echo Dot for 99 cents with a one-month subscription.
Get an Echo Dot for 99 cents with a month of Amazon Music Unlimited
Here's how the Prime Early Access deal works: Prime members that pay for one month of Amazon Music Unlimited at the regular rate of $9 a month can get an Echo Dot (3rd Gen) for only 99 cents. That comes out to a total of $10 for a compact smart speaker and one month of music streaming.
A third-gen Echo Dot usually costs $40, so the deal saves members $39 on the popular smart speaker. The deal ends October 12. After your first month of Music Unlimited, your subscription will automatically renew at $9 a month until you cancel.
Amazon Echo Dot (3rd Gen) with Amazon Music UnlimitedThrough October 12, Prime Members can get an Amazon Echo Dot for only $1 when they sign up for one month of Amazon Music Unlimited. Members who take advantage of this deal will be ineligible for the ongoing four-month trial of Amazon Music Unlimited. Afterward, the streaming service will auto-renew at $9 a month.

If a discounted smart speaker isn't to your liking, Prime subscribers can also choose a different limited-time promotion. Prime members who have yet to try Amazon Music Unlimited can get their first four months of service for free. Meanwhile, non-members that are new to the service are eligible for three free months.
Typically, Amazon Music Unlimited only comes with a one-month trial, making this offer especially enticing. It's available now through October 12. After your promo period ends, your subscription will automatically renew at $9 a month (Prime members) or $10 a month (non-members).
Amazon Music Unlimited (Prime Member Plan)Amazon Music Unlimited lets you stream more than 90 million songs ad-free and millions of podcasts. Right now, new subscribers with an Amazon Prime membership can get four months for free. After your trial, the service costs $9/month.
Amazon Music Unlimited Early Access Sale FAQs
When is the Prime Early Access Sale?
Amazon's Prime Early Access Sale runs from October 11 through 12. The 48-hour event offers Prime members exclusive deals on home goods, electronics, toys, beauty, and much more.
What is Amazon Music Unlimited?
Amazon Music Unlimited is an ad-free music streaming service with a library of over 90 million songs. It includes lossless HD, Ultra HD, and spatial audio in Dolby Atmos and Sony 360 Reality formats for no additional cost.
Prime members can sign up for only $9 a month; non-members can also join for $10 a month. It can be streamed on smartphones, tablets, Fire TVs, web browsers, and Echo speakers.
Is Amazon Music Unlimited worth it?
Amazon Music Unlimited is one of our top picks for the best music streaming services you can subscribe to, and it's our choice for those with Alexa-integrated homes. We also recommend it for Prime members, since it comes at a special discounted rate just for them.
If you're not a Prime member or Alexa user, however, we recommend Spotify for most music listeners. It doesn't offer lossless audio or an Amazon subscriber discount, but it does have better curation, playlist and sharing features, and a free listening option.
