  • BBC pushing smartspeaker delivery

    From Smolley@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jun 4 10:53:00 2024
    I used to listen to BBC radio on Alexa years ago, but it ceased over night. Now some woman is pushing the
    idea as a new concept.

    "Alexa, enable Radioplayer."
    "Alexa, ask Radioplayer to play BBC Radio 4."

    (I think you need the BBC Sounds app on your phone to play it directly,
    and it's not compatible with my phone.)

    Needs an app on my phone which isn't compatible with my version of Android.
