What will happen with my connect if iI will not accept the trade up.  Will my connect still function in the future ? 

 

I do not need the feature that the port has !!   My connect is only a few years old and it does what it has to do !

 

What will happen in the future with my other sonos components ?

Due to new firmware or other reasons will we have to buy new products ? Is this the way sonos is making business ?

Hopely I'm wrong

    ...which adds 3 additional cables to manage, an additional power requirement, and the peace-of-mind that goes with adding a <$20 off-brand device to the signal chain.

     

    Just listing the option.  You don’t have to use it (or even care, considering I gave it to someone else and not you).

    It’s accurate. Just listing the negatives, as I came to join the conversation, which is pertinent to my use environment.

    But the replacement for the Connect does not have optical out so completely useless to me and I suspect many others.

     

    A coax to optical adapter can be had for < $20.

    But shouldn’t have to buy an adapter and cannot believe that using an adapter doesn’t degrade the audio quality.

    I gave no comment on what should or shouldn’t be.  I merely gave a option.
