An Update would appreciated. My only move seems to be to sell my Bose equipment on Amazon and just rebuild by home system.
I have been on this site for too many years now waiting for updates and answers that never come. Updates to features that should be integrated quickly like every other competitor. I currently have 3 Sound Touch 20 systems and the Bose Sount Touch 130 in what should be an awesome home music experience but this setup has failed me miserably. Either Bose is using their brilliant speaker engineers to also create the software platform, which they are not equipped to do, or Bose corporate is giving them instructions tieing the software engineers hands behind there back. No group of software developers could be this incompetent and if so no HR department could be so bad at finding replacements. At this point I don't give a damn if you hate Apple, and consider Tidal a competitor to whatever other company you want to partner with and think Amazon might be a competitor in the speaker market one day but your lack of integration is killing this brand. This is exactly how blackberry died. Falling back on your core and not moving with the time. Its 2016 and its all about the connected house and my Bose system doesn't play well with anything. Within the next week I will be putting all of my systems for sale on Amazon and buying replacement speakers by sonos unless I can get some serious answers to any of the things we have been asking for the past few years. I was so sad to learn today that Sonos is now creating full integration with Amazon Alexa and even has an app out for the xbox one. Whys is Sonos leading the charge in every category and the biggest feature you guys have added in the last two years is a clock. Please give me any possible clue as to what you guys are planning to bring. If you never plan on integrating something we should know. If you are planning to work on it buy haven't started tell us to. These are a few things I would like added and would like to know if this will ever happen. We as a community have been complaining and waiting for too long.
