Doesn’t say much for Amazon support ... giving you inaccurate info.

Oh my god, thanks Joan Ann.
That is so poorly designed, so thanks for letting me know. I have now enabled
the skill and can see it in settings.
I’m having a bit of a nightmare getting the account linked though due to poor
VoiceOver performance in the Alexa app. I will persevere though :)

Hi Dave and all
I am using Apple music on my Echo. You need to enable the skill before you can
activate it in music settings. It is working very well for me. I like it
because I also have access to Apple music on my IPhone.
Joan Ann.

Hey,
It looks like Apple Music is not yet available on the Amazon Echo here in
Ireland, though it is in the US and some other countries.
I thought I read a couple of months ago that it was coming to Ireland, but it’s
not appearing as an option for me, and I asked Amazon on Twitter this morning
and they confirmed it is not yet in Ireland.
I find Spotify pretty good overall on the Echo, though occasionally struggle to
get what I want with my voice, and have to go into the Spotify app on my phone
to find the song, then send the audio to the Echo.

Hi Dominique Im a long time user of spotify and i think its about the best
of the music streaming services. There is also apple music I also find if
you cant find a song by title search the artist and please note the correct
spelling in relation to the song title and how its writen is crucial I will
be staying with spotify for the foreseeable future as i love the user interface
and how you can build your playlists
Hope this helped
Best wishes

I’ve been set up with a three month trial on Spotify, but there are some songs
that I’ve asked for, that are not available, so I was wondering which is the
best for streaming music and have the best array of tracks available? Are
Amazon Music and Spotify the only ones available? I’d like to know before I
renew, or not, what others opinions are!
Sorry for all the questions.
Thanks!
