  • Amazon's (NASDAQ:AMZN -0.5%) Alexa-enabled devices will get the ability to control Sonos sound systems through voice controls. General availability of the feature is scheduled for 2017. Amazon: "Our Amazon customers love listening to music. With Echo and Alexa, we combined that love of music with the ease of hands-free voice control, and today, music is one of the most-used features on Alexa-enabled devices. We're thrilled to collaborate with Sonos to combine the magic of Alexa with an incredible way to listen to music in every room in the home."
  • Amazon is reportedly looking to offer an Alexa-exclusive music streaming service in addition to a product comparable to what Apple, Spotify and others already supply.
  • Spotify Connect (MUSIC) will also integrate into the Sonos ecosystem to provide functionality capable of controlling Sonos speakers through Spotify's app. The feature will be available via a beta program in October. Sonos: "Fifty percent of all Sonos households use Spotify. By tightly integrating the Spotify experience with the Sonos system, we've created an easier way for Sonos owners to get music out of their phones and playing all around their homes."
