If you get the Google Home or the Home Mini and purchase a subscription to GooglePlay Music, about $10 permonth $15 for a family, you get a subscription to Youtube Red for free. As there is no screen, I don't know if it palys just audio files from Youtube Red or if that includes the audio only from Youtube Red.

As the Echo Dot accesses the internet to retrieve the information which is given the user, I would feel certain that she could access Youtube and play a video from there, or at least the audio from a video. An exact video may not be able to be played, but on which address a particular subject should be doable.

Subject: [TechTalk] Amazon Echo or Google HomeWhich will access YouTube?
Hi Everyone,
As I wrote last week, I bought my friend an Amazon Echo Dot.
My cousin set it up for him using my IPhone because he owns neither a computer nor smartphone, or other kind of tablet.
He really wants to listen to YouTube videos of Indian music and movies; is there a way for Alexa to access that?
Or, should I return this to Best Buy and buy him a Google Home device.
Please advise.
Note: I only check this email address on the weekends; my regular
email address is audjoy@ajlmusic.org
Thanks, and have a happy holiday season.
Audrey

Hi Mary,
I am a Kurzweil user, and remember your name from the former group.
This kindle thing is for a dr. friend of mine who has recently
become blind. I am teaching him how to use jaws with his computer,
but I think he would be really interested in the fire tablet. What
more do you know about it? You can write me off list at jazzpiano@ca.rr. Com.

Hi Jim,
Yes, you can certainly use the Kindle on a PC with either Jaws or NVDA. The support has gotten much better in the last couple of months. And yes, you can also use some of the Kindle e-reader's. Those are the devices that are made just for reading books. Otherwise, the cheapest alternative is to purchase a Kindle fire tablet. That lets you re-kindle books and also do other things. And right now, those tablets are on a good deal of Amazon. The cheapest one is the fire seven and I think it's $30 right now. The HD eight is $50, and the HD 10 is $100 for the les expensive device. Aside from size, the major difference that would concern us would be the fact that both theeight and the 10 have two speakers, and they sound better than the seven. Also the 10 has a newer processor and more storage space, although all of them come with a card slot. I don't have personal experience using the E readers, but I know that some of them can be used.

Hi all,
I don't have a kindle reader now, but I am thinking about getting one.
Is there a standalone kindle reader that I can get that I wouldn't
have to use my computer with it? If not that, how does one use the
kindle with a P"C? Jim _disanceaounddancea_
