New Alexa feature announces songs before they start playing

This new feature for Amazon Alexa could be either very annoying or very useful. Called Song ID, the virtual assistant will announce the name and artist of whatever song is playing before the song plays. It’s a feature available exclusively to Amazon Music. Amazon added the feature because it thinks it’ll help with music discovery. Perhaps a lot of people have been asking the virtual assistant what song is playing. If you do find the feature annoying, you can ask Alexa to “Turn off Song ID.”
