The sonos system is an extreme example of "engineered to fail". The only issue is lack of memory. All they needed to do was make the memory upgradable (or supply the system with a decent amount of memory to begin with). Sonos intentionally engineered this End of Life. Listen, we could all make our own DIY Sonos system, but to be honest, a.) We don't have time, and b.) they're software integrated with Spotify/Pandora/etc. (after they fixed major bugs from each release) was actually pretty decent. Instead, unlike my Dad's 1976 RCA reciever/turntable/speakers that still pumps out a sweet sound, my Sonos system will be relegated to the dump. If someone out there is selling an open source sonos replacement with decent control software, post the link here, I will buy it.
