Amazon will never “own” the streaming market with the services they offer now. Their music service is terrible, unless you like listening to elderly rockers forgetting the words to their songs during lackluster live performance recordings. Their video streaming is very expensive since they charge extra for most of their offerings choosing to force you to rent or buy rather than include it in their Prime Video. Personally I think all these various devices being released are a sign that Bezos must be smoking the same stuff Elon Musk is! Or if he isn’t, maybe he should be.
