TV optical audio to Sonos systems wirelessly - New SONOS connect product

Would be interested in SONOS developing a new product for wirelessly connecting TVs via the TV optical output. The device would be simplified version of the connect product that is powered by the TVs USB ports. This would allow all SONOS products to be used as output devices for the new generation smart TVs. This would be a full 5Ghz connections and not Bluetooth.
I would expect that would be great consumer interest for current SONOS product owners.

    You mean OTA? Currently it's technically not feasible to broadcast/transmit audio over WiFi from a TV set or PC/Laptop to wireless devices.
