Apple Music on Sonos Now Available in Beta, Final Version Launches Early 2016

This was pretty much all I was waiting for in order to drop Spotify.
Anyone want to tell me why I should keep Spotify when I can use siri and my apple watch with Apple music?
Plus already Apple has more mainstream artist that Spotify won't be able to sign. i.e. ColdPlay

I can't speak about specific artists, but I just canceled my Spotify subscription.

Before doing so, I used the "move to Apple Music" tool to migrate my playlists.

It takes your Spotify playlists and adds the songs to your AM library. Then it creates a dump of the playlists so you can import and recreate them in iTunes. Slow as molasses and only matches about 80% but good enough for me.

I wish Sonos would let you apply skins to their computer app (windows).

I agree. I hate the OSX Sonos app. It's so dark and ugly!

Yesterday I bought a pair of Sonos speakers after being told that I would be able to access iTunes Radio. After setting up the speakers I discovered that I can only access iTunes Radio if I have an Apple music subscription.

That's the way it works for other services, too. For example, you need a paid Spotify account to use it with Sonos.

Yes, except I can now get iTunes Radio for free. However, if I want to listen to it on my Sonos speakers, I have to pay for Apple music.

Blame Apple.

Is there anyway to "heart" or like a song in order for Apple Music to continue fine tuning recommendations within the sonos app?
Also, am I able to add a playlist from the "for you" section into my playlists within the sonos app?

no, I don't think so at this stage. Sonos are likely to add playlist and liking features later.

This is true. I want to use the Sonos app's Apple Music integration because the audio is better than say, streaming Apple Music to my airport express that then feeds my Sonos Play 5, but I need to manage my Apple Music ratings, heart's , and playlists. If I cannot do that , then I can't use the Sonos app.
