Right now, I'll give it a C-. There's some minor stuff in there that'll make for great listening.
Well, after nearly a month of listening, I'm more impressed with PM than I was initially. I'm now giving it a B-. I discovered I can get nearly whole albums with a song search. After pulling up the album it's on, I frequently find that most of the songs are Prime eligible. I then add all that I can to the cloud.

I'll give it a B when they add landscape mode to the Android app and a B+ when they add Universal to their catalog. As an on demand music service, it's good if you like it's rather small catalog of one million songs. Time will tell if they can get Universal onboard.

The only way I'll ever give PM an A is if they add genre based radio stations and allow stations to be built around a group or a song. Until then, AOL and TuneIn are my go to streaming music services.

Overall, Prime Music adds definite value to Amazon Prime and I'm glad Amazon added it.
