KILL THE CR100

I don't own a CR100 controller, so I don't see why anyone else should get to use one, or even want one in the first place. I am struggling with the reasons to actually kill the CR100 off so could you please help me by answering the following question: 'Despite not owning a CR100 my life will be so much better when the CR100 is dead for the following reasons......' I do have one, 'because SONOS told me it was a good idea.' I ask politely that posters stay on topic and provide valid reasons relating to life improvements they will receive when the nasty CR100 is gone. Regards Dave

Customized Keyboard Shortcuts

Allow users to customize the keyboard shortcuts because the default Sonos desktop shortcuts are uncommon and inconvenient

Update 8.2.1

Whenever I click to update I am taken to the App Store to update. All the App Store allows to do is open the app again and nothing gets updated. Very frustrating.

Remotely disable alarms?

I'm away from home for the holidays and just realized that I have an automated Sonos alarm setup. I was hoping I could remotely disable this (just like every other "smart" device on earth), but found another post here claiming that the only way to deal with this is to have a "friend or family member get as close to my home as possible to login to my wifi, use my credentials, and alter the alarm settings." This can't seriously be true, can it? I can't simply turn off my alarm using my phone whenever I travel (which would effectively mean that this feature is entirely useless for anyone who ever travels)? Is my Sonos system going to uncontrollably blare loud music disturbing my neighbors for the next 10 days???

Resetting Sonos Account

Have had Sonos since 2012. Equipment was all installed and registered under my name and email. Somehow, after moving to a new home, my son managed to change the email and system registration. Now am locked out and can't setup system using all of my current equipment. Have Play 1, Play 3, Play 5, 2 Connect units and 2 connect Amps.

Room disappeared

Was playing through connect in my living room an hour or so ago. This room has now disappeared from the app. I've tried rebooting the connect and my router and neither get the connect to show. The connect does come up if I connect directly to the router with a cable. Everything else in the room is working over WiFi and as I said, it was working over WiFi a couple of hours ago . Very very annoying how can I fix this

Tagging with multiple genres

When tagging music with genre, it should be possible to use more than one and instead have multiple genres. For example: Benjamin Grosvenor's Rhapsody in Blue is not just "classical". It is "classical" and "piano" and "piano concerts" and "romantic" and "british". Rammstein's Herzeleid is not just "rock" but also "industrial metal" and "neue deutsche härte" and "german". Mike Oldfield's Exposed is not just "pop" but also "guitar" and "live" and "symphonic rock" and "orchestral". It is extremely difficult to shoehorn music into genres as it is, keeping it organised with only one genre is downright impossible. Some cross-over genres are even so eclectic that setting just one genre is unfeasible, e.g. Rodrigo y Gabriela or Roger Greenawalt and David Barratt's Beatles on Ukulele project. I am aware that using a UPnP server remedies this but since UPnP support is rudimentary at best (not mentioning having to have a server running), this is not a viable solution.

Worst Controller Ever

I used to rave about SONOS a few years ago when I bought my system. Today, I regret it! The controller is the most unreliable piece of carp I have ever bought in my life. It crashes for no reason; it stops playing for no reason. It does not recognize my music library. It is capricious. I could go on and on...:@
