Amazon’s Echo devices and digital assistant Alexa have quickly gained popularity around the globe and the company now commands 70% of the voice-controlled speaker market. Because of that, it has decided to experiment with a new paid subscription for “premium” Alexa skills.
The first Alexa skill to feature a subscription is the Jeopardy! Skill, which will cost $1,99 per month for 6 additional clues every day. The good news is that Prime members will have access to premium skills for free, at least at the moment. Now we only need to wait for more premium skills.
