Well, it should have been four tonearms (if you want to listen to music for more than just a few minutes)...Poor design .

We're thrilled to unveil a groundbreaking new feature coming soon for all WiiM devices: Vinyl Mode for Streaming.

We understand that many of you cherish the ritual and warm sound of vinyl records. But sometimes, life gets in the way, and you can't indulge in the tactile experience. That's why we've created Vinyl Mode, which simulates the quirks and charm of a classic turntable.

Are you tired of the perfect clarity and convenience of high-resolution streaming? Longing for the warm, authentic crackle of a vintage vinyl record? With Vinyl Mode, your WiiM streamer can now simulate the quirks and charm of a classic turntable!

Features include:

• Customizable Crackle & Pop Settings: Choose your level of "authenticity," from a gentle hiss to an epic scratch that skips every other beat.
• Warped Audio Simulation: Bring back the nostalgia of poorly stored records with realistic speed fluctuations.
• Side Flipping Reminder: Your music will automatically pause halfway through, so you can experience the thrill of flipping over a vinyl.

We’re so committed to authenticity that we’ve even partnered with leading vinyl enthusiasts to ensure the perfect blend of frustration and fondness.

Note: If you're hearing too much crackle, make sure you clean your mobile device screen carefully for the best sound quality.

Any news on development for those yearning for the 8-track experience? I can't believe you've been completely ignoring this segment of the market, seems like it would have been easy to add the track changing delay and sound. For audiophile purists like me.

I'm just sad it appears the rift between Snap and Crackle/Pop seems to have gotten to the point where the can't even work together any more. Sure, Snap may have gone off the deep end for a while with the booze and drugs, but it's not like he's a cereal killer.
