Amazon Reports Google Pulls YouTube from Echo Show

[engine]

It seems Google has blocked Amazon's Echo Show from playing YouTube videos, and Amazon is not happy about the way it was done.
Methinks this attitude is no different to how everyone else is treated.

In a statement, Amazon said, “As of this afternoon, Google has chosen to no longer make YouTube available on Echo Show, without explanation and without notification to customers. There is no technical reason for that decision, which is disappointing and hurts both of our customers.”

Google's response

“We’ve been in negotiations with Amazon for a long time, working towards an agreement that provides great experiences for customers on both platforms,” it said in a statement. “Amazon’s implementation of YouTube on the Echo Show violates our terms of service, creating a broken user experience. We hope to be able to reach an agreement and resolve these issues soon.”
