Make Amazon MP3 stores downloads on SD card
I have been investigating the best way to have Amazon’s Android MP3 player store music downloads on a MicroSD card (instead of internal storage). So far reports are somewhat conflicting… I hope to have some better, and definitive, news to report soon!

Amazon.com: Customer Discussions: Android app desperately needs option to set download locationhttp://www.amazon.com/Android-desperately-option-download-location/forum/FxZLHSK3AW6KZU/Tx424PASGPHVOB/10/ref=cm_cd_pg_pg10?_encoding=UTF8&asin=B004FRX0MYI will still use the app as I have already purchased the songs but I will not be making anymore purchases until this is fixed.
What’s funny is the Amazon MP3 store downloader automatically downloads to the micro SD card in my Motorola Droid. I observed similar behavior with my HP Touchpad running CyanogenMod (have it set to dual boot with WebOS so the WebOS partition shows up as a ‘SD card’ in Android). I’m guessing they store to the storage device with the most free space/capacity. The OG Droid has so little internal (non-SD) storage I could only fit a few songs on it.
Hola John,
Thanks for the info. That is good news about the Droid. On my SGS4 it does not store on the microSD card. However, I first installed the app before mounting a card. Then I installed the card and no dice. So I uninstalled/re-installed the app and tried again. Still no luck. 🙁
Eventually I’ll reset my device to factory defaults and try again but so far the results are disappointing. I really wish Amazon would add an option for directly setting where music is stored!
