Amazon's Amp is now available on Android

play.google.com Amp Live Radio: Music & Talk - Apps on Google Play

Create and discover live audio shows with music you love and unscripted moments.

Last spring, Amazon launched its live audio-streaming platform, Amp, which aims to reinvent radio with “an infinite dial of shows.” Amp offers users access to a vast, built-in music library to create their own DJ sets with. No need to buy songs or flirt with the DMCA, just make a playlist, go live, talk in between tracks, follow the chat and even invite callers. A little over a year later, Amp is finally available on Android.

For a moment I thought it was Amazon's version of Google Amp. I'm relieved that it's an audio-streaming platform.
Is this Twitch but for DJs?
- Essentially, yeah.
Any iOS Amp users that can recommend Amp? Seems like there'll be either a huge number of streams or almost none
Sounds interesting, but sometimes you just want to listen to something while minding your businesses, not interact or anything. Let's see how it does, for those amateur radio hosts.
- You don't need to interact with anything if you don't want to. Just fire up the app, start listening and go back to doing your stuff.
  
  Spotify already works fine for that. What's the advantages of amp for a simple listener?
Typical not available in the UK.
- You can get it via Aurora Store. The app itself works fine without a VPN or anything - there's no restrictions within the app.
Couldn't really care. Who wants to be interrupted while listening to music?
