Too Many Updates!!

I've gotten notifications for several updates in the past few weeks. I have a Sonos at home and at work, and this is making for a ton of work because I have to do double the work. Is it possible to consolidate multiple updates into one release? The other issue is, in certain instances, I have to reconnect to my sonos (i.e. press the volume up & mute). Not sure what's going on.

I love my sonos speakers, but these updates are killing me.

    Utter nonsense.

    Sonos has complete control over its updates. But chooses to keep people busy every Sunday morning accepting updates on personal amd sonos devices instead of aggregating features into major releases in a way consistent with a positive user experience. [...]
    This is utter nonsense. There has not been an update today.

    The updates occur when you go to use Sonos, frustrated by the endless updates, any day that I go back to use Sonos there is an update ready to labor my time. Therefore any given day is guarenteed to be an update day if you slow down your usage of Sonos because its garbage.

    There have been a lot of update lately, because there have been a lot of new features and bug fixes that management felt need to get to the customer sooner rather than later. It certainly can be annoying to users who don't use the system often and/or have no interest in new features.

    If you honestly believe the developers are incompetent, then it would be logical to sell your units while they still have value. That wouldn't recuperate your wasted time, but it would help with that wasted money you referred to.

        There is no "scheduled" update, to my knowledge. Instead, when they have a build that has enough stuff in it that is verified/QA'd enough to go out, they'll release it.
