Why is Amazon Music not available in the Google Playstore on my Sony Smart TV?
When I search for it, there’s nothing.
Spotify and Tidal are available.

Just tried it on my Sony Android TV and found it and installed Amazon Music fine,

did note when searching for it and typing in the word "Amazon" it showed in the list as I started typing, but when finished the word "Amazon", Music disappeared and only Prime came up.

So check as you type,

good luck.

Strange, just tried again. Says ‘Amazon Music for Artists by Amazon Mobile LLC isn’t available on Google Play on this device’

Pretty sure "Amazon Music for Artists" isn't what you want. I think it's this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.amazon.mp3

My Sony TV can't see the Amazon Music app either.

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

Yep, think you’re right.
Strange that it’s not available though.

Can you sideload the APK using a file manager?

Yep, apparently it’s possible, but I’ve read it’s a horrible user interface and that you really want to use a wireless keyboard.
