I have an old ZP80 system that I use strictly for playing music from a vast catalog of music and podcasts that keep on my NAS. So it’s all inside my personal network. I don’t route any streaming or outside services, e.g., Spotify, Apple, Google, etc, through my Sonos system. No do I have any accounts with those companies.
So was surprised the other day when my GF, who has Google and Spotify at her house, but not Sonos, was at my house and was able to play music from Spotify over my Sonos system. I called Sonos support and they said that Sonos exposes an API called Direct Control to 3rd party services such as Spotify, so all she needs is her Spotify app on her phone to play music through my Sonos system.
How do I disable that feature on Sonos? I don’t want Spotify to have access to my Sonos system, or to be able to route content through my network or gain marketing information by knowing that content was routed through my network. I want to keep my Sonos system tightly buttoned down to just my network inside my firewall.
Thanks in advance.
