Amazon Echo

Just like I feel about people who still play garage rock and punk :D:$:D

Sigh. :8

[yawn] 😉

Interesting post on Alexa/Sonos here: http://www.aftvnews.com/sonos-integration-with-amazons-alexa-inches-closer-to-release/
I am a little skeptical as my updated version of the app shows different heading at the top - as well as identification of app and devices.

However, it's a pretty good indication that they're getting much closer to a release of some kind. Well within the 2017 time frame promised, too. Although perhaps I shouldn't be so optimistic, it could be a beta test situation, who knows? But an indicator of progress, to be sure.

What you should know about our new privacy statement
Next week, we’ll be introducing some important updates to our privacy statement. Sonos owners and anyone who visits our website will be asked to acknowledge this new policy when we update our software and systems in the coming days. The new privacy statement covers what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you can make about both.
We use the data you share with us to improve your listening experience. For example, the information we collect allows us to understand your system’s performance so we can make improvements to Sonos software and keep it secure. The data also makes tools like Trueplay tuning possible, so your speakers sound great in every room. And as we introduce new ways for you to control Sonos, like with your voice and via music service apps and smart home integrations, the data you provide makes these experiences seamless.
