Hi @Highznberg, welcome to the Sonos Community!
You can’t remove Sonos Radio from the Sonos app, however using New Search will show the most used services on your household at the top of the list. You can also set a default music service in the Alexa app and Sonos will use this when you give the system a voice command.
I hope this information helps!
That's ridiculous. The local music library has disappeared in the new search and this new search is offered as an alternative? Sonos Radio somehow remains permanently in second place in the search sequence, even though I have never used it. How do you come to the conclusion that you are making an already not particularly good piece of software even less attractive by so obviously trying to foist services on your customers that they really don't want and telling you so?
I've seen so many people asking to have the option to disable Sonos Radio, it's ridiculous they won't respond, other then we will add it as a requested feature, for it to be ignored. And its obvious why, it's their way to sell ads to it's users.
If one of your employees picks this at your restaurant and someone from the music industry comes in they can pop you for ascap violations And they can get you up to $25,000 I think for this violation. Freaking ridiculous that Sonos will put you in harms way and they said well it’s not supposed to be used in a commercial setting. What an idiot the representative was.
Another example of “smart marketing”. Turn away loyal customer. Sonos are you listen? Marketing folks - get your MBA from other place. Time is changing. We will buy more hardware if software is FAST and FLEXIBLE.
