Amazon's Alexa is available in numerous countries, but there are still major expansions left to go -- case in point, Mexico. The company has launched both Alexa and its Echo range of smart speakers in the country, complete with a new voice, Mexico-oriented Spanish, local knowledge and the Alexa skills to match. Amazon Music (including both Music Unlimited and Prime Music) is arriving in the country, too, providing millions of tunes as well as locally curated playlists and stations. The regular Echo as well as the Dot, Plus, Spot and Smart Plug are available to pre-order now ahead of a release next week. Music Unlimited is available for MXN$99 a month for individuals (MXN$990 per year if you're a Prime member), or MXN$149 (MXN$1,490 per year on Prime) for a family plan with up to six people.

Amazon launches Spotify rival in the UK
Amazon is launching its Spotify rival, Amazon Music Unlimited, in the UK with a headline price of £9.99 a month and access to a library of "over 40 million" songs. Those figures are comparable to competitors like Spotify and Apple Music, but where Amazon is focusing its competition is on a pair of special offers, as well as the tight integration with its own hardware ecosystem. The service is cheaper for those with an Amazon Prime subscription, the company's all-you-can-eat free delivery package. The monthly cost drops by £2, to £7.99, and an annual payment plan is available for £79 a year, taking the equivalent monthly fee to £6.58. That's how Amazon is hoping to entice users to upgrade from its other free streaming service, Amazon Prime Music.

Amazon Music Unlimited challenges Spotify with steep discounts for Echo, Prime users
The latest entry: Amazon, which rolled out Amazon Music Unlimited on Wednesday, a streaming service with tens of millions of songs, a byzantine pricing structure, and a clear preference for Amazon aficionados. As long rumored, Amazon Echo owners can tune in to Music Unlimited at a far lower price than anybody else. But those whispers of a 5 subscription for Echo users proved false; in fact, Amazon's cutting them an even bigger deal. Echo, Echo Dot, and Amazon Tap owners can subscribe for a mere 4 per month, a sizeable discount over the service's 10 standard price. The smart speakers even come equipped with Alexa-enhanced voice controls for the service, letting you bark out commands like "Alexa, play happy music," "Alexa, play Green Day's new song," or "Alexa, play Van Halen from the 1970s" to get the party started hands-free. The 4 tier only works with a single Echo, Echo Dot, or Amazon Tap.
Amazon Launches On-Demand Music Service; Echo and Prime Users Get Cheaper Subscription
The service supports the company's Echo Speakers and Alexa voice assistant. Echo users can request songs from Music Unlimited using just their voice. Alexa can pick up the latest song from the artist and play music based on mood and taste. A new feature called side-by-side pairs artists' commentary with selected songs from their catalog. But the USP of the service is its price, which effectively comes down to 6.58 for Prime users for a yearly subscription. The company is offering users a 30-day free trial. Family plans with a 6-account subscription will be rolled out soon, costing 14.99 per month and 149 for a yearly subscription. Echo users get the cheapest deal, although the subscription will be limited to a single device.

Amazon launches voice-driven on-demand music service
NEW YORK--"Alexa, take on Spotify and Apple Music." But Amazon on Wednesday launched Amazon Music Unlimited, an on-demand streaming service powered by the Alexa voice familiar to Echo owners, and a service primed to muscle in on an already congested streaming market for music. Amazon Music Unlimited debuts with a catalog of "tens of millions" of songs--Amazon won't reveal a precise number-- as well as curated playlists and personalized stations. That promises to makes it more of a viable competitor against Apple Music, Spotify and any number of other streaming services than the company's existing Amazon Prime Music service, which has a far more limited catalog of some two million songs and will remain available at no extra cost to Amazon Prime members. All too often when you request a song on Echo, Prime Music only plays a sample.

Amazon's Music Service Launches With a Secret Weapon: Alexa
Alexa can already order you an Uber, control your smart home devices, and keep you company. She's about to learn much better DJ skills, save you six bucks a month on streaming music, and possibly even change the way you listen to music in your house. Amazon Music Unlimited, a beefed-up subscription service built to compete with the likes of Spotify and Apple Music, launches today. It's cheaper than those big-name services--for many users, at least--and it features clever voice control with the company's Echo speakers. If you're using Music Unlimited on an Amazon Echo, Tap, or Dot, the service only costs 4 a month. To use it on anything else--mobile devices, your computer, a Fire TV stick, or even Sonos speakers--the pricing falls more in line with Spotify or Apple Music.
