Amazon Music on F27 and Firefox 52
A few Firefox releases ago, Amazon Music stopped working on Fedora 25+. I saw a message about requiring Flash plugin which I knew would be a short term fix.
The following Reddit thread gave be an idea to install a Firefox add-on to change the user-agent.

I went to the Firefox 52 Menu->Add-ons->"See more add-ons!" botton at bottom of page. Search for "user agent" (without double quotes)
I installed "User-Agent Switcher" by Linder. It gave me an icon in the Firefox icon tray (next to uBlock Origin). Clicking on this I set the following settings only:

Select an operating system:
Open the Amazon Music site -> https://www.amazon.com/gp/dmusic/cloudplayer/player?ie=UTF8&ref_=nav_youraccount_cldplyr#stations and now music plays!!!
