Hi, I was wondering if Sonos has a limit on the number of devices you can use on one network?

Why is it capped at 32?
Why is it capped at 32?
There has to be some kind of limit, and 32 controllers + 32 players = 64 total. That makes 64 place holders in an index (0-63) and 63 is the upper limit of a binary number (2^6, or 0x3F, or 111111 in binary), which would make it appear the devices and controllers are in some sort of index limited by a 2^6 sized array.
Sorry if that seems all gobbledygook, but in computer science terms, that is the reason.
