Why do I need to sign into a Sonos account to add a speaker? Sonos speakers disappear regularly then I would just go in an add them again. And now, this PITA has been made worse by making me sign in to add hardware I OWN inside my OWN HOUSE. Explain to me someone why I need to sign in?

    And yet you logged into this web site with some kind of credentials, and this site is a lot more public than your private home network (hopefully!)

    These requirements were put in place for security reasons; to keep outside hackers from accessing your system. So I highly doubt Sonos is going to bend to your will and re-expose users to these threats.

    Hope you find a worthy replacement.
