Your Kindle is much more than just an e-reader. It can also play your music files, which can be great for listening while you read. You can also load your audiobooks and listen instead of read. If you have a Kindle Fire tablet, you can use the Amazon Music Library service to stream your music from anywhere that you have an internet connection.

Sync Your Music Library to Your Kindle

If you want to put music on your Kindle (including the Fire, Touch, and Paperwhite models), you can easily transfer music files by plugging it in and moving them over via the File Explorer on your computer. You can also use Amazon Music on your Kindle Fire. With Amazon Music, you can upload up to 250 songs for free.

    In order to transfer music files to your Kindle, you'll need to connect it to your computer. Your Kindle uses a Micro-USB cable, which is the same cable that many Android phones use for charging.
    • This section covers Kindle e-readers, including the original Kindle line, Kindle Touch, and Kindle Paperwhite. If you are using a Kindle Fire or Fire HD tablet, see the next section.

    You can start dragging and dropping MP3 files into the "music" folder. You cannot use subfolders to organize the files, and the order that they play on your Kindle is the order that they are added to the folder. Only MP3-format files can be played.
    • Be aware that early Kindle models have very limited storage space, and you may only be able to fit an album or two of music.

    The easiest way to transfer music is by copying the files from your computer directly to the Kindle Fire. You can use any Micro-USB cable to connect it to your computer, which is the same cable most Android smartphones use.
    • Windows XP users will need to have Windows Media Player 11 installed in order to detect the connected Kindle.
    • You can use the Amazon Cloud to access your music files from the cloud instead of filling up your tablet's storage. See the next section for details.

    Unlike the Kindle e-readers, you can add your folders for better organization. The Fire tablets typically have much more storage than a Kindle e-reader as well.
    • You can drag and drop files from your iTunes library window directly into the Music folder on the Kindle.
    • The Fire tablet supports MP3, AAC, AC3, WAV, and OGG.
