A:AnswerPrime Music is included with your Amazon Prime membership at no additional cost. So yes need Prime Account or Amazone Music. It depends on the song. Most Songs available free may be sung by diff singer or in diff version. Depends many other factors. And If its trending songs, u listening everyday but as soon as that songs come under amazon music prime songs by their policy it will not play by Alexa, and notify u your account is not configured for it. If you google on amazon music fr that song u will see now we have to purchase. But its really good to use except only for songs.
A:AnswerNot sure about your cable channels, but the Dot is great for online streaming via apps like Pandora, I Heart Radio, TuneIn, etc. I use TuneIn to listen to internet jazz stations from all over the world. More choices than I would ever need.
A:AnswerI always thought if it was a used/returned item that BB called it a open box and it was cheaper. Both Echo Dots were brand new in the box and show wasn't the Show when I bought that a few days later.
A:AnswerYou can buy ”Orbivo allone pro” It is SMART RF HUB AND IR REMOTE CONTROLLER and you can connected to all your tv, DVD Player, PlayStation, air conditioning, electric fan, amplifier etc. And use voice commands instead of remote control.
A:AnswerThe Roku I know kinda does, you need a third party app that you need to pay for, then it sometimes works but Alexa seems to have trouble communicating and you repeat yourself again and again. Until you with just use your Roku phone app or figure out you just need the TV remote closer to you. I have a suspicion that Alexa doesn’t do this well because it competes with FireTV and Sticks. It once worked a lot better then it does now.
