So they announce a new Sonos Five and a new app, which immediately drops support for the original play:5.
Clearly their products are not future proof if they are constantly dropping support for their older products.
Won’t be investing in anymore of these speakers, my original play:5 and play:1s work perfectly fine, along with my playbar and sub which are probably also not far off the obsolete list!
"Constantly dropping support"
Those play:5s are older than a decade, yet they'll still be functioning and getting security updates after the new app launches.
