Apple Music is now compatible with the Amazon Echo and Fire Stick in Australia and New Zealand

HomePod - Amazon Echo

Shortly before the end of 2018, we saw the first movements of Apple to try to reach a greater number of users who do not use any of its services and / or platforms, announcing a collaboration agreement with Amazon that allowed them to enjoy Apple Music from the Amazon Echo and the Fire Stick, Amazon's Apple TV.

This possibility has been geographically limited to the United States during the first three months of the year. Last April, the possibility of enjoying Apple Music on the Amazon Echo and the Fire Stick of the Jeff Bezos company arrival in the UK and Ireland. A month later too it is available in both Australia and New Zealand.

It is striking that the announcement of this availability has not come from the two big ones in the industry. It has been the users who have realized that they could finally enjoy Apple Music through their devices by previously configuring them through the Amazon Alexa application. Thanks to this integration, users in Australia and New Zealand can now request that Alexa play your favorite playlist, a specific song, an album ...

The geographic limitation of this feature, which is only available in English-speaking countries, just doesn't make sense. If we have to talk to Alexa to interact with Apple Music, and Alexa speaks our language officially, there is no reason for both companies, or one of them, are limiting the expansion of this function.

Another of the movements that the company has made to expand the number of users who make use of its services and / or platforms, we find it in the possibility of using AirPlay 2 on Samsung, LG, Sony and Vizio models. Samsung, who has already offered this function for a few days, also offers us access to Apple TV, an application that gives access to the catalog of series and movies that the guys from Cupertino make available to us.
