I am subscribing to UTube Premium for some of the video features so want to also drop Amazon Music and use UTube Music rather than pay monthly for two similar services.

Is there any way to migrate my albums and playlists from Amazon to UTube?

If not, there should be. I ran into this same issue a long time ago when I moved from Google Play Music to Amazon Music.

Perhaps editing some internal file on the PC or the Android or is all of this kept in the speakers themselves or on the Sonos site in some database? It would be nice to have a conversion tool that would convert to the extent possible if not completely when possible. I use the S1 system.

Thx

I’ll check w/ Soundiiz.

Is there a concept of editing the playlist file? Presumably some XML file stored on the speakers? If so, is there any documented way of getting/replacing/editing that file? Thx

You might want to look at https://developer.sonos.com/ . As mentioned already, controlav has written a program to do an export, and may have some device on importing.. Not sure if there is a way to import playlist, or if that can even be done through the API.

As has been referred to above, my iOS app (see profile) will let you turn a Sonos playlist into an XML file in SoundIIZ format. You can then use soundiiz.com to import that into a whole bunch of different music services. If you are a glutton for punishment you could instead use my app to export into Sonos XML format and edit it manually, or into a CSV file if that is your preference. The hard part is getting it back into a music service, which is why I partnered with soundiiz as they totally have that part all figured out.

Any chance it would also export my album favorites where SoundIIZ would also port those to a new service? Or is it just playlists? I have Windows and Android so if IOS only I guess it’s moot. Thx

It will export Sonos Favorites but only to Sonos XML format, you would need to hand massage that into SoundIIZ format before importing to another service. And yes, it is iOS only so likely moot for you anyway.
