Love, love, love RP! Started listening about 4 years ago and became a paying member shortly after that. So glad to have access to RP's incredible music collection and the random playlist is awesome. I almost never listen to my own music anymore unless I'm in the mood for something specific. I especially appreciate the ability to cache RP on my phone for mobile tunes. Recently took a road trip up California's "Lost Coast", many hours in the car with RP all the way thanks to caching ~20 hours worth of music. It's uncanny how a lot of times RP's selections align with our moods and scene. As an avid skier I cache RP for my ski days. When I have my helmut with the bluetooth headphones built in, goggles down and RP on 10, point them downhill and I'm in heaven! I have an outdoor bar area (aka: The Shark Bite) where we entertain frequently, and always have RP on the outdoor speakers. Guests invariably ask about the music and many become converts.
Just got on the Alexa bandwagon. Cool to be able to just tell Alexa to play Radio Paradise and violá RP on the the receiver! Had to run out and get another Echo Dot for the bar area. It would be great if the RP skill included being able to ask Alexa what song and artist are playing. There's lots of great music here on RP that I am not familiar with so I like to know what's playing.
Enjoy the ride!
Thanks :-)
Due to an Alexa programming quirk, you need to say 'Alexa, ask Radio Paradise what's playing". Hopefully at some point Amazon will allow us to use the simpler "Alexa, what's playing?" that works in other circumstances.
