Deezer service through Alexa...

+1 - wondering whether to switch to Spotify...

Any news of a date for being able to use Alexa to play Deezer on Sonos?

That’s a question for Amazon. Google is bringing Deezer into its Home ecosystem, and Sonos has committed to Google Assistant in 2018, so I would think voice control of Deezer will be via Google, not Alexa.

Frustrating silence from all concerned. Would be nice to have an idea of when this issue will be resolved. Sonos, Deezer and Amazon giving impression they don't care.

Spotify has been on Alexa itself a good while. Sonos had to do something for its integration so too a little bit to get it on Sonos.

I haven't seen Amazon hint at any further music services adding to Alexa. I think they are trying to promote Amazon Music Unlimited and thus aren't actively seeking out further music services to add to Alexa.

Sonos - has no say (dependent on Deezer and Alexa)
Deezer - I'm sure would like to but don't know that Amazon would agree to.
Amazon - pretty much has all the say and has an inherent interest with their own service not to add a large amount of competitors.

What “issue”? Deezer isn’t available on Echo, so it’s not available on Sonos One via Alexa. It is available to play on Sonos, and can be voice controlled for everything except searching for music.

Deezer will soon be available for full voice control on Google Assistant, which Sonos is implementing. That’s the route Deezer voice control will be available on Sonos, not via Alexa. End of story.

Didn't know deezer was coming to Google Assistant. Thanks chicks. I had deezer for a while but my kids hated it so we switched to apple music.

Oh my. I trust the offence my ignorance has evidently caused didn't give you indigestion.

I guess the fact that the Deezer community manager said 2 months ago that Deezer are working on new features including alexa compatibility threw me....

Sorry.

Deezer has been actually promoting that they’ve coming to Google Home for several months. There are zero hits on a Google search for Deezer Alexa. Yet you are here expressing frustration at Sonos and Amazon because some “community manager” on some obscure forum said that Deezer might be working on Alexa integration at some point in the future? Sheesh... 😃
