I would think that "TuneIn Premium" could be an available service considered separate from the "free" capability already provided. You provide your TuneIn login and are able to access all of the premium content - commercial-free music, sports, audiobooks, etc. - that comes with the Premium service. It would be just for premium content, nothing else. Anything free would still be under "Radio by TuneIn" or however it's labeled (I'm not at home right now so I can't see).

However, the OP of this topic was just looking for a way to be able to log into the TuneIn service (premium wasn't an option 4 years ago; I think it just started one or two ago), in order to maintain access to their TuneIn Favorites (which they may be setting on another device) and other personalized content/recommendations.

This critical missing feature is what prevents me from jumping back into the Sonos ecosystem. It's clear that neither TuneIn nor Sonos are interested in improving the experience. Some have tried to pass the blame to TuneIn, but if Sonos cared they would have done something about it in the past five years; TuneIn allows authentication on much less common platforms (Control4, for example).

Thanks for all the feedback everyone! While I don't have any news on TuneIn Premium or TuneIn accounts in general becoming available on Sonos, I wanted to let you know that I've passed on your feedback to the team. They're constantly looking for what the community is interested in seeing improved.

Thanks for sharing, and please let us know if you have any other suggestions for services or features.

Other streaming services, indeed most, seem to even require a login to initiate service. Get on the ball Sonos. This might be as simple as using the tunein longin URL FOR THE FOR THEIR LOGIN PAGE, rather than using the url for just using their non logged into service.

You have to ask TuneIn to do it .. .not Sonos. Many services within Sonos require login- the services set it up themselves. TuneIn has to add their premium layer to Sonos - which they have not. TuneIn has not.

You also have option now of using TuneIn app and streaming via airplay if ios device and compatible sonos units.
