let them remove it.  what do i care.  by then, i will have sold the stuff.

 

btw, lawsuit is the language corporations understand and want to avoid at all costs.  They are never inexpensive

I work for a firm that will do anything, anything, before going to court

 

In the decade and a half I’ve been posting here, there have been at least a thousand threats of a class action lawsuit for one slight or another. 

Guess how many were actually filed? 

One, and it was a “class” of (you guessed it) one (he lost).  So I’m quite sure those other 999 or so idle threats didn’t/don’t have Sonos shaking in its boots.

It won't be.  Sonos doesn't care if competitors are discussed.

OK, it’s been more than 10 days because the app ‘worked’  but now, it cannot even get the rooms straight and i am tired of the poor quality of the app.  As a developer i am hoping that Sonos Developers are ashamed of themselves for letting this through to production.  As soon as i have it posted on an auction site, i will lyk.

 

Goodbye Sonos.  You were great and then messed up.


More weirdness.. I kept having the music pausing or stopping when using the Sonos App.

But that’s why Apple Music.

Just to try (because at this point who knows what will make a difference) I switched to Spotify.

So far playback has been fine.

So there seems to be a problem with how the Sonos app interacts with Apple Music..? Has this been looked into? Anyone knows a fix?

No issues I’ve seen, it may be local to your system. At the least, I’d submit a system diagnostic within 10 minutes of experiencing this problem with Apple Music, and call Sonos Support to discuss it.

There may be information included in the diagnostic that will help Sonos pinpoint the issue and help you find a solution.

When you speak directly to the phone folks, they have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your network and Sonos system.
