      Alexa is currently working only with limited music services (Amazon, Tune-In etc). It has no awareness of your Sonos favourites as these are not a part of these music services. This is probably something for later on !

        I'm sure that 'play favourites and playlists' is a touted feature in the blurb somewhere ...

          Ah well - no favourites or playlists. So, it's not much more than a 'cut-down' version of the Echo (with a few extra services, but NOT Spotify!

          Underwhelmed.

          Version 1.0 of the release, with more promised "coming soon". I didn't expect a complete steak dinner with all the fixings, but I'm pretty pleased with what they've done so far, and I'm happy that the recognize that there's more to do.

              Software development is a fun process, especially when you have 2 (or more) different systems to have to make work properly together. As Michael Valentine Smith said, "Waiting is".
