@DoctorOW Amazon had a promotion a few months back that if you signed up for their music for the promo period, you get an echo dot. Sign up for the month, stop the subscription and new echo dot. Mine is still in the box.
Four in the family room
Two in the dining room
Four in the living room
One in the bedroom (a Lenovo smart clock)
One in my bathroom
One in the extra room (where my 3D printer is)
One in the office
(I like the same music through the house.)
Alexa?
One in the family room
One in the office
One in his shop (an input with a speaker because it gets loud in there and he’s ruined two dots)
Alexa is pretty much just used for weather, timers and does the smart devices, like plugs.
@lisaviolet I have an upstairs Google Home Mini and a downstairs Google Home Mini. My partner will not let me purchase anymore. How does mixing Google/Alexa work? Is there any benefit of having Alexa over just more Google Homes?
Yeah! I got that notification in my email a couple days ago, and I pushed it through. Is it free only if you have Plus or Premium? I got Plus a couple years ago to cut commercials.
I got a free one from spotify a while ago. Gave it out to family over the holidays.

@lisaviolet Sirius XM offered me a similar deal, but I didn’t need the subscription or the Echo Dot so I never claimed it. We’re a Google house.

@DoctorOW Running both is like having different brands of tvs. So far as I can tell, they basically serve the same purpose.
Some smart devices only work with one or the other.

@PocketBrain That’s what I have. I like rewards.
