Sorry, don't believe you. See below.
they deleted everything, a couple of years ago, and shuttered the upload service
Maybe you are talking about a different area. or maybe you just never noticed?
sure you can store any file format like in your amazon cloud allocation, but it will not be seen by the amazon music player.... all that you can see now are the auto rips of your purchased CDs, if bought from amazon...
there was a facility to add your own tracks ( free) to your amazon music. 250 tracks for free, far more via a paid subscription. They shut the whole thing down. we were given x days to download our previously uploaded tracks or they would vanish forever
here is a link for the non believers:

Uploading or importing your personal music to Amazon Music is no longer available.
and another link: looks like there may have been a temp. appeal window, now closed. perhaps you used that ?

Amazon has announced that it’s shutting down its Music Storage service, which allows customers to store up to 250 songs in a cloud library, on April 30 – but that’s not to mean you won’t be able to access your collection.
The move is an extension of Amazon’s decision to prohibit customers from uploading new tracks to Music Storage, which came into effect in December. Users will have up until January to export all of their music to a different platform.
In the meantime, customers can instruct the firm to preserve their library until January by diving into Music Settings, then tapping Keep my Songs. They’ll need to do so before April 30, though, or their entire collection will be removed.
