“Apple Music launches a Discovery Station to help you find new songs” (www.theverge.com)

“The new station will play a curated selection of songs based on what you’ve been listening to but haven’t heard before.”

Looks interesting. To me, Apple’s curated playlists have always been superior in quality to Spotify’s but they really don’t have as vas of a selection of curated playlists. Apple Music stations are often excellent, too, if you know how to crate them.

The problem I have is that I have my Apple Music family account hooked up to my Alexa’s and Sonos so the kids can listen to whatever they want and I can play music through the Sonos using Alexa when I’m cooking and can’t use my hands.

Unfortunately this means that my favourites mix and any recommendations are tainted with the godawful noise my kids call music 😂

There really needs to be a way to link an Alexa or other device to a specific Apple Music family member.

HomePods recognize your voice and switch accounts on the fly.

Unfortunately they’re also much more expensive than the other options unfortunately. That feature does sound exact i need.

however, I have a three storey house and so use Alexa’s drop in and announcement features as intercoms as the kids would never hear me from the kitchen on the ground floor when they’re in their top floor bedrooms. Being able to put Alexa’s wherever I want for very little outlay was a big plus.
