I simply replied to the assertion that Wiim was the most comprehensive streaming system. No need to use expletives to express your annoyance.

I think the Sonos approach was to devise a plug'n'play system (which Wiim have copied to a certain degree). I believe anybody is able to develop a Sonos service which once approved by Sonos will be made available as a service. It's hard to deny that Sonos is the most comprehensive system...

Here's the streaming services for Sonos: https://support.sonos.com/en/services The app interface is another matter - I personally dislike its design & ergonomics.

Your opinion only. The most comprehensive streaming software is Sonos - sadly their interface apps are mostly rubbish, but if you want podcasts, music services, BBC Sounds & numerous other services then Sonos beats all the others.

If Wiim included LMS as a server, technical support would be obliged to deal with users' problems. It could turn into a support nightmare 😱😁. It must be a reference to squeezelite, not the server.

Two covers

The Asset - Netflix. Tense undercover in Copenhagen's crime world. Excellent acting.

A film which deals with the consequences of the failure of the doctrine of mutual assured destruction (MAD) & the proliferation of nuclear weapons... Beats the current string of bash 'em up, teenage romantic angst nonsense being pushed out.

Most series/movies are just junk. Check out Trap on Netflix - wooden acting, predictable screenplay. Just awful 😜. The only interesting scene is the appearance of a huge 6-8 metre long limousine 😁

A House of Dynamite - Netflix. Another hit from Catherine Bigelow. Class film making.

Sounds like the soundtrack for a 3rd rate 'made for tv' movie about locomotives. 😬

It's plastic and circuit boards, not a living being 😁. As a Sonos user, I don't feel tempted to enter into a fan-boy competition, either. It is what it is, another speaker but with a weird little display. Enjoy.

Mediocre analysis of essentially over-produced noise 😜. Sorry

You're probably correct. On the other hand, most systems (eg. Bluesound, etc.) seem very restricted in what they offer. Sonos is 'open' in that they encourage third party services, a bit like lms plugins offer.
