I am now the unhappy owner of two Sonos Play 1s falling for the scam of a "partnership" with Amazon allowing users to send music from the Echo to a Sonos Play 1.
Turns out the Sonos is WiFi and the Echo Dot is bluetooth!!!! I will be publishing more on my YouTube channel. I will also mention the junk software that other users complain about skipping to next song before the current song has completed playing.
Please feel free to see my review of the Play 1 versus the UE Boom 2 on YouTube.

It could potentially count as traffic-driving spam.

Well, duh! Guess you're the one person who didn't know this, or that it's completely irrelevant to the integration. :8
The original post here is a laughably incorrect and ignorant exercise in self-promotion. It defies any reaction beyond Chicks' "whatever".
There's never been any suggestion about sending music from an Echo to a Sonos. The joint development is of voice control.
A bit of basic research would reveal that Sonos doesn't support Bluetooth.
Oh, and if you have track skips you have network problems.

You do know the integration isn't ready yet, right? :8
Okay, I'll go slowly for you.
The Sonos Play1 receives audio over WiFi (are you with me thus far?) the Echo Dot sends audio over Bluetooth (still following?).
In other words: The signal sent from the Echo is useless to the Sonos but Sonos is making a big deal about integration.
Have an adult watch this video with you.

But just curious - are you really completely unaware of the true situation or are you trying to mislead?
Whatever
Whatever... :8
