    No, what I am saying is that more than likely when the penetration of Windows mobile gets to be somewhere around where Android was when they released that app, Sonos will support it.  As will other manufacturers who will now see it as a viable market.  Bottom line is, Windows percentage of the market is not high enough.  When it gets to be high enough, it will get attention.

    By the way, you can check the forums for old posts on the Android app.  The same BS arguments were made about "Sonos hates Google!!" and "Sonos is in bed with Apple!!" and people were saying the same things about market penetration.  And guess what?  When Android grabbed enough of the market . . . lo and behold . . . Sonos put out an Android app.

    Perhaps in stead of making excuses for the lack of a windows phone app we should all get together and put pressure on Sonos to develop an app

    Why should I do that? I own Android devices. And reasons are not excuses. Maybe you should spend more time convincing more people to use Windows devices, that is the only way you'll get your app.

    Not selfish, just reality.  Name calling does not really help your cause. 😉

    It's not selfish, it is realistic.  I never called for Sonos to not develop a Windows app, I only explained a perfectly valid reason why they are not developing one at this time.  Calling me selfish for simply pointing out the reality of the situation is indeed name calling.
