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

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 notice that there is no denial of an issue between Microsoft and sonos

You think sonos is going to respond to this thread?

Is there an example for "the other companies"? in regards to multiroom systems?
