"Does anyone know if Amazon Music is supported on the PS5? Amazon Prime Video is there, but can not find the Music App."
In 2020, Sony's PlayStation 5 (PS5) has hit the market, a significant upgrade from PS4. Besides improving the storage, disk capacity, and resolution, Sony's added a list of impressive pre-installed games to PS5.
