How to Listen to MP3 Music on a Kindle (Amazon)

If you enjoy listening to music while you read a book, your Amazon Kindle just became a little more indispensable. Every Kindle model -- with the exception of the Kindle Fire -- will let you manually download MP3 files to the device and play them with the built-in MP3 player. The Kindle Fire will let you access your Amazon Cloud MP3 files and play them, provided you have an active Wi-Fi connection.
