    I find myself saying, "Goodnight" to Alexa...

    I enjoy my new toy, but haven't fully configured it. I am annoyed when I request the Eagles, Alexa says shuffling songs by Eagles, then proceeds to play one of a few playlists. Amazon's arrogant about how smart their users are. It was obviously just a preselected playlist. This happens with several artists. It is deceptive and below the standards I expect for such a nice piece of hardware!

    Very helpful setting timers while cooking, reminders I know I'll let slide to long and playing music and general entertainment. I like the feature of "whole house" music when they all play as a speaker system together. Sometimes I get a little concerned about what might be kept as data on my activities not involving Alexa though. :)
