Ah yes, but TuneIn (Along with Spotify and Amazon music) are special
cases. (You can set them as your default music service via the Alexa
App). Hive could be similar, though I'm note sure.

Once I have the proof of concept video published, I think I'll focus on
this next - getting support for simplified commands. It can easily be
removed and I need to see if it supports slots. (eg 'Alexa, play Adele
on squeezebox Touch' rather than the full 'Alexa, ask <skill name> to
play Adele on Squeezebox Touch'). I'm not sure it does.
