Chrome extension for Sonos?
Got two sonos speakers to test them as something that we could have for the entire school… hmmm maybe not. Maybe Sonos need 124140000 views to roll this one out.
+1 and me, i would really like to be able to play web content through my Play:1 speaker.
I watch a lot of sound design tutorials online, but having to listen to them through a laptop speaker really isn’t ideal - the sound on the Sonos speaker is so nice it would be x1000 times better.
Also the ability to listen to BBC Sounds radio shows through it would be amazing, and being able to do it through the browser would mean a lot of us BBC Sounds users would stop bugging them for Android integration with the app ;)
+1… A way to send audio from my computer browser directly to Sonos that resides in the same network
Then arrive hereto find out I can't control them from my browser? Seems like a big oversight.
That's a showstopper for me.
Back to Airplay.
Seriously, think about it. Even something like a Raspberry Pi Zero W stuffed in a Boost case would be good enough. A 3A would work too if you want hard-wired Ethernet as an option. A dedicated controller design would be great too but that would cost a lot more to develop.
Any further developments on this?

I have been assuming this would come, but have been waiting three years now. As a Chromebook owner, I cannot run my Sonos from my computer.
However, I'd find it deeply useful with nine zones and a couple chromebit's in my house. However, if there's a strategic rationale for why they'll never consider adding a chrome extension, I'd love to know what it is. If it's just higher priority stuff that will generate revenue, I get it. I just want to know if it's coming, or why we can't have a 3rd party one?
Thanks,

Even Amazon Alexa offers a way to play devices from your computer, even Chrome devices (https://alexa.amazon.com). So the competition has already been there and done that. And SONOS pre-dates any of their systems, and actually bent over for them to incorporate their technology in their device. So they are definitely slipping.
Also a scheduler for playing music at certain times.
