Switching to an iPod Clone for Music

The Reason Why
I stream a lot of music using YouTube on my phone, enough to significantly drain my battery throughout the day. There are also times when I'm not around Wi-Fi and my phone doesn't have any signal, so I can't stream music. Also, my Samsung doesn't have a headphone jack, which I prefer over using bluetooth earbuds.
I looked up different models of new MP3 players and I ended up pulling the trigger on the Innioasis Y1. This thing looks exactly like an iPod to me, which is cool, but this thing has a killer battery life, a small built-in speaker, AND a headphone jack! It came in the mail fully-charged and the battery lasted over a week until I put it on the charger at 27%. This thing is so small and compact too, so it's really easy to slide into your pocket. The earbuds it came with aren't terrible either.
Where Do I Get Music?
I like to get my music from Amazon MP3. If it's not there, I'll try looking on Bandcamp. My last resort is downloading audio from YouTube. It's way easier to pay the $10 for an album and not have to fuck with editing meta info for the songs like I would if I downloaded songs from YouTube.
What Am I Listening to on My Innioasis?
Right now I'm listening to hed p.e.'s album Forever! and the new album from Daron Malakian and Scars on Broadway, Addicted to the Violence.
