Now while its great to see that Spotify radio is going to make it into the Controller app, having used Spotify for a few weeks now on my Sonos system i think Sonos need to go a step further. In effect i think that the spotify app, for ipad for instance needs full integration into the Sonos system (as it does for Napseter etc) What ive found annoying to date is that if im playing a tune on my Sonos system that i like, i then have to go to the Spotify app, search, and find that tune, then click on the star button for example so that its added to my Sonos Controller. That kind of functionality should be included by default.
It's my understanding that the folders issue is a workaround to not having full Spotify integration in the first place (please correct me if I'm wrong). Is there another issue holding up the public release of the full Spotify integration? And if not, at what point does Sonos just rip off the former band-aid and just mimic Spotify as it works in the real world?



IMHO, the people who went the trouble of making the folder work-around are the same people who will (rightfully) complain, but who will also see the benefit of and adapt the fastest to a straightforward adaptation of Spotify's actual functionality.



Let's get this sucker out the door already. Spotify is the leader in this space. I don't want to buy new hardware, but it is becoming more of a "consummable" by the minute. I need a solution that can adapt more quickly to trends in music delivery.



I don't need bleeding edge, but this is pretty ridiculous...
Wow! I've been so distracted and out of town lately that I didn't even notice that Sonos added support for My Albums! I'm so terribly excited about this addition to the previous round of Spotify updates! I can't comment on the Radio functions as I'm not a big user there, but this really rounds out my personal experience with Spotify on Sonos.



What a great holiday present, ya'll! Thanks for all the hard work and many happy returns. May you get some time off to decompress from a season full of milestone hardware/firmware/software releases...
And when you come back maybe you could get the Follow Playlist feature online? I know. Never satisfied. But. Thinking that's a big one for most Spotify users...?



Anyway. Thanks again and Happy Holly Daze!
Just received my PLAY:1. I assumed (I guess wrongly) that I'd simply be able to set-up the speaker as another device, like Airplay. So any sound from my Mac or through the Android app could be piped through.



Am I right in assuming I instead have to use the Sonos controlled for *everything*? e.g. it's not gonna be appear in my Spotify 'device list', and instead I've gotta search through the Sonos app for all tracks?



I'm hoping I'm completely wrong?
At this time, the only music service that can play directly from the native app is Google Play Music. There is some talk to allow streaming from an app in the future, but nothing concrete. Note there is a workaround to include Bluetooth, Chromecast Audio and/or Airplay by connecting the appropriate adapter to a Sonos unit with a line-in (Connect, Connect:Amp, Play:5).
Please add ability to play genre based Spotify radio on sonos! Why can it cope with artist and song radio but not genres?
Hi everyone,



With the newest software update you can now control your Sonos system through the Spotify app. You can read more about this here.
