Amazon Echo support
Would there ever be any consideration of adding since compatibility with Amazon Echo? A skill would be awesome, but even if it could just be connected through the "cast" button somehow that would be very cool. There isn't a great solution for playing a music library on Echo right now without setting up Plex. It would be cool if I could use CloudPlayer since it's already all set up.

Hello,
Thanks for the feedback. We appreciate it.
Echo support has been suggested by other users so we are evaluating it for the future roadmap. I'm not sure how extensible Amazon's API is but the QA/Dev team will investigate further.
Feedback like yours helps us to prioritize our future development plans. I've sent your comments on to our product manager.

2 years passed by and meanwhile echo shows appeared all over the place but with no real "play my own music" option or support or player.
I guess you are missing an opportunity to add at least a UI based cloudplayer skill to alexa.
Even though for the US customers there is a solution like this one here that I can not use in germany.

Show my albums or show my playlists would be a great point to start many would love to have even for audio books.
And technically Alexa is a cloud driven service, our files are plain mp3 stored in the cloud and there can not be much missing to show them ... Spotify can do it for their service why not Cloudplayer which relies on android like the whole Amazon Alexa driven line up.
Time to wake up for a alexa cloud player ... at least a small one
