    I can't complain too much because I got it for free with a purchase of Blink security cameras. I would like the echo dot to be able to play the sound of youtube videos. Why? because youtube is free. I'm not going to join amazon music when the web is has loads of places to play free music. I had a hard time getting it setup with my wifi because it only receives 2400ghz and my network is both 5ghz. So I had to create separate SSID's to get it to connect. Right now I use it for iheart radio which is ok and occasionally an alarm. I wouldn't buy one but I'm well aware of Corporations putting out stuff that require more money to do anything.

    You have to sign-up for an Amazon account to make it work. I don't want an Amazon account, so I do not use this free speaker.

    Amazon Echo Dot 3rd Gen.

    I bought two of these on special pricing. I gave one as a gift and kept one. I like it better than the 2nd Gen Dot for sound, looks, and functions. It is not a necessity but it is fun and convenient for general questions and entertainment. It makes a great gift, is easy to set up and takes up little space. Be warned it responds to TV uses of "alexa" word and sometimes speaks randomly.
