They also have workout, running, and cooking playlists.
None that I've found for long drives or insomniacs.

Nothing says "customer focus" as activity-based playlists.
I know about the others, but I had to add something to this thread to tie it into reading

Oh, anything to do with the eee-vile 'zon is fair game.
And who knows, if they decide to set up a cloud library to compete directly with the ebook subscription services, they might choose similar terms. Ten streaming devices is a lot but one at a time sure puts a damper on family use. This one is definitely a perk for the head of the household: the mother.

That's right. I forgot about that aspect. Even worse, the evil 'zon lives in my back yard

Just go retro and take turns. I remember having to do that as a kid with only one TV.

When I go to the amazon music authorized devices list it shows my Roku authorized for AM. . I guess I'll assume its coming at some point?

They also automatically authorized my original fire that doesn't even get amazon music since its 1st generation.

I am still having fun adding music to my library, in anticipation for getting it on the Roku.

Remember, Amazon Music and Prime Music are not the same.

Doesn't Roku still play Amazon Music? or did Amazon remove that channel?

1st Gen Fires will play Amazon Music, but not Prime Music.

Android devices running Gingerbread will play Amazon Music, but not Prime Music.

None of the on-demand streaming services have AC/DC (nor Metallica) in their library as those bands refused to play nice with the licensing because they're still whining over the early Napster days. The Beatles' music is also not gonna be there.

Thanks; I didn't know that. A shame, because they're one of my favs.

I found Linda Purl's latest, Midnight Caravan, so I've enjoyed listening to that today.

There has been an update, but it did not add landscape. Hopefully it will not be long in arriving.

I sure hope so. It's a pain not having it on my Nexus 7-2. I don't mind so much on my Nexus 4, because I rarely use it in landscape mode.

I actually like this new one from Amazon. I was able to find a lot of Prime content I want plus a lot of albums I want to replace from my vinyl days. I can actually see myself using prime content plus buying some of the Prime offers with a CD and MP3 bundle.

I assume it's not dissimilar to Apple's services content wise, well save for the "free" content that is.
