Hi,
Hope you are all well folks and have 2 quick queries relating to smart speakers I was hoping someone may be able to assist with?
Query 1
I believe the answer to the attached is no, but thought I would ask the experts.
I’m looking to buy a smart speaker for the house that can support my Apple music library.
However, I do not have an Apple music subscription, I only have iTunes Match which stores all of my library in the cloud.
Is there an option available to stream from your library in the cloud, (either at home or elsewhere) over wi-fi? From what I can see, you must have a music subscription and even then its only stuff tat is actually in the music store that you can stream?
Obviously don’t have room on my phone to download my entire library and simply airplay to device, but was just wondering if there are any other viable options?
Query 2
Already have an Amazon Alexa speaker however even though you can link BBC sounds to it, the speaker cannot set alarms with BBC channels because of a limitation with TuneIn etc. There may be way around this or I’m not doing it right, but basically I’m looking a speaker that is IOS/Apple friendly and can also wake me on weekdays with a BBC radio channel of my choice?
