Google pulls YouTube support from Echo Show, Amazon isn’t happy

Amazon‘s recently released Echo Show brought a new dimension to the world of smart speakers when it arrived carrying a built-in display. Thanks to this screen, it’s unique among the current lot of connected speakers, and offers opportunities for information retrieval and media consumption that other systems just can’t deliver.
As well as supporting flash news briefings and Amazon Video content, the Echo Show also launched with support for YouTube — presumably the video service that was most frequently viewed on the device. However, YouTube was pulled from the device yesterday and users were greeted with the message “Currently, Google is not supporting YouTube on Echo Show,” when they tried to access it.
