@Iain,
So right now there is no competitor of Sonos who offers a Windows app? Do all these other companies (Raumfeld, Bluesound, Denon, Samsung, Bose, etc) also "have issues with Microsoft", or their "the CIO or CTO . . . absolutely hates Microsoft."?
Or could the real reason be that the low margin hardware world of CE, specifically Multi-room audio, sees no reason to support a mobile OS which has a very low market penetration?

Wow. That's logic for Beginners. Look at other multiroom systems like Raumfeld or Bluesound. No App for Windows Phone ether.

But not for multiroom audio, right?
There is no mobile app.
Maybe your question should have said windows rt 8.1. He answered the question asked.
Perhaps not with multiroom systems but there are 100's of windows apps that are available on all platforms Facebook, twitter, google+ instagram
There is no mobile app.
But this doesn't work on windows 8.1 RT so its only half a solution

Is there an example for "the other companies"? in regards to multiroom systems?
You think sonos is going to respond to this thread?
I notice that there is no denial of an issue between Microsoft and sonos

Why cant they develop apps for every platform other companies can do it
Couldn't it just be that it's not worth developing a mobile app. I know just one person who has a windows phone and that's my dad!
Sonos can not develop for every platform so you have to chose the ones with broadest adoption.

I'd say "issues" is putting it mildly. I firmly believe that the CIO or CTO at Sonos absolutely hates Microsoft.
