mandatory software updates

Is it possible to stop the mandatory software updates? I would prefer to decide when and if I update my controller and system software. As I see it if I am happy with how my system is working why should I go through the hassle and risk making my system worse. I am very unhappy with the last iOS APP and the only reason I updated it was because the old app stopped working SONOS said they need it running on the latest software. It would make sense for SONOS to notify me of a update but until I decide to do the update my system should still be functional.

    I’ve seen them for £309. The point is, some owners on here have had Play 5s exchanged for £99 and they want £249 for a Connect that’s only another £50 new. Where’s the logic in that?

    I would say because play:5 a lot newer. Your unit they haven’t sold forever. So your not getting exact replacement
