      It seems Amazon changed something on their side and all ASINs for digital music items using the normalized format like "https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B074C3PTW5" redirect to "https://www.amazon.de/music/player"

      The "dp" path seems to still work: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B074C3PTW5
      Alternatively there is music.amazon.tld: https://music.amazon.de/albums/B074C3PTW5
      or amazon.tld/music: https://www.amazon.de/music/player/albums/B074C3PTW5

          I don't use Amazon but after a closer look it appears it's still possible to buy. Maybe they are consolidating the UI for streaming and purchase.

          Amazon Music is a different thing though (a streaming service vs Amazon's purchase store), isn't it?

          Possibly Amazon just fucked up their redirect code and it'll "fix" itself.But ideally these should use music.amazon.tld

          Until I saw this:
          https://musicbrainz.org/release/605fbbdd-4686-4103-a40d-4001299f7f2a
          Changing https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RWL4VG9
          to https://music.amazon.com/albums/B07RWL4VG9 redirects to https://music.amazon.com/albums/B07RX47KNB

          Using the "dp" path however will not redirect: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RWL4VG9
          https://www.amazon.com/music/player/albums/B07RWL4VG9 doesn't redirect either
          Unfortunately URL cleanup doesn't allow me to enter either of the last two :-\
