I question the accounting here.

My kids use our Echo Dot to play music using our Amazon Prime subscription all the time. It's what makes me renew that subscription when it comes due.



Sounds like you did what they wanted.

But I bet most people don’t. They probably use them for competing services like Spotify that not only don’t make Amazon money but reinforce the feeling of not caring about Amazon music.

I’m in the Siri world, but I’m with the other posts in this thread. 99% of my usage is simple stuff like timers, math problems, smart home, etc. stuff that just won’t ever drive anyone’s revenue directly.
