Amazon Music HD Plugin

Does anyone on the Volumio staff have any news on compatibility with Amazon Music HD?

Nothing?

Without trying to out pressure on the dev teams it would be great to know if this is going to happen anytime soon.

It’s been almost a year since there was any
‘official’ update on what would be a flagship feature for many, so I’m not massively hopeful. If it’s been canned, or deprioritised, please just let us know so we can move on.

I would definitely be nice to know either way. For me it would be a massive plus. For now, I am using MoOde for my music mostly since it has the same features minus playing of CD and the interface is MUCH faster and less laggy across 4 different installations.

Would it be possible to advise if the project still goes on or was abandoned?
I postponed purchasing a new streamer in the hope that Volumio will have Amazon Music integration and benefit of the Minidsp SHD and Volumio sound quality.
Thank you in advance.

We never stopped pursuing Amazon Music integration, however this is not totally on our control.

I am happy to share that there is some very interesting progress (we now started the technical work, about 3 weeks ago). However there is not ETA on when this will be released, as it’s mostly Amazon’s decision when to allow us to
