using my music library for an alarm

I have a number of Sonos amps and want to use my music library for an alarm. This should be an easy task for engineers to implement. I do not want to create music lists as I takes too much time when I can simply select a genre, album or an artist from my already existing music library.

I also don't understand why Sonos closes out requests such as this when the community would like to add comments at their will.

To me, this is just a nuisance and reason to move to another product.

@Matthew_9,
If the library is not too large, then just add it to a queue and save it as a Sonos playlist and set that playlist as an Alarm. I have quite a large library, so I sometimes just use a subset playlist of favourite tracks instead.

And which product would that be, which will enable you to set your music library as an alarm?  And do everything else that Sonos does?

Maybe Bluesound has this feature? I haven't checked.
