Napster on Alexa (Currently available in the U.S., Mexico and Brazil)
Playing your favorite music from Napster is as easy as asking Alexa. You can now use Alexa voice commands to access your Napster service to play artists, songs, albums, stations, or playlists. You can also set alarms on your Alexa device to wake up to music with a playlist or song. Plus, Napster can be set as your preferred music service so you don't have to keep saying "on Napster" after each command.
