I also hate it. The new functionality removes  almost all the good reasons which I liked about Sonos and not chose another system. If I knew this was the way to go for Sonos I would not ever buy it. Focussing towards streaming and services like Spotify(hello! not all the music in the world are on these services!)  and not be able to play local music files, playlists etc, makes the system worthless to me!

The new app is terrible

When i get together with friend who are sonos users we all complain.  After making a sizable investment in speaks Sonos attempts to make them obsolete by changing the app and forcing us to buy new equipment

 

also how stupid it this?  Why cnat i just turn off all speakers

Turn off Sonos

Sonos is designed to be always on; the system uses minimal electricity whenever it isn’t playing music.

  • To stop the music in one room or room group, just press Play/Pause in the app or on the speaker.

  • To quickly stop the music in every room, choose Pause All from the Rooms pane.

When did they force you to buy new equipment? I didn’t get that email. I do know the app is being updated weekly to sort the issues though.

The speakers are meant to play ‘on demand’ — to wake up when they are needed and to go in to a low power mode when they are not in use.  Hence they have no on / off switch.  Why would you want to turn them off ? Or have I misunderstood your point ?
