When will Spotify actually work with Sonos?

On a completely ‘refreshed’ network, where my Sonos speakers and components are no more than 10 unimpeded feet away from the router (on a 1 gig network), Spotify routinely skips a song (or more) and starts 10 seconds into a song 4-5 songs down on the playlist.

Apparently this is a 4-year old problem without resolution. My research indicates people asking this question that long ago and *still* there is no resolution for it. 

I spent thousands on Sonos gear at this point. That it is incompatible with the world’s leading music streaming service is pathetic. 

Why not admit that Sonos doesn’t support Spotify?

And why do you close off conversations in this support community as if the problem has actually been resolved?

In my experience there is nothing to resolve. SPOTIFY just works for me and legions of other users.

There is a hardware or network issue in your system.

If you describe your system and network for us we can offer some pointers. Or you can submit a diagnostic and contact SONOS support.

The sad part is i went back to yt music. No streaming issues. But then i remembered the limited functionality for yt music.

Spotify. Doesn't stream well (slience/skips) but everything else does. It's eerie. Yt music functionality still sucks.

I have tried them both, Spotify & YTM, but have ended up sticking with Amazon Music HD/UltraHD for now - I also like Deezer and Apple Music services too - all those three have been reliable here. I guess it’s down to reliability at the end of the day and what works well at your main listening location. I still use the Spotify and YTM ‘free’ services too though and they’ve been okay aswell. I would just go with what works for you.
