Apple Music Coming To Echo Devices In December

Apple Music subscribers will soon be able to enjoy Apple’s 50 million songs on Echo devices when they will be available on Echo beginning Dec. 17. Country fans should be especially excited about the new advancement since Top Country is the most-requested music to wake up to on Echo devices.

Customers will be able to ask Alexa to play their favorite songs, artists, and album or any of the playlists made by Apple Music editors from around the world. They will also be able to ask Alexa to stream expert-made radio stations centered on popular genres like Hip-Hop, decades like the 80s, and even global music like K-Pop.

“Music is one of the most popular features on Alexa—since we launched Alexa four years ago, customers are listening to more music in their homes than ever before,” said Dave Limp, senior vice president, Amazon Devices. “We are committed to offering great music providers to our customers and since launching the Music Skill API to developers just last month, we’ve expanded the music selection on Alexa to include even more top tier services. We’re thrilled to bring Apple Music – one of the most popular music services in the US – to Echo customers this holiday.”
