Lets hope they can do better. Sonos has great hardware products but the software is just bullshit and the need for an account is even worse.

Sonos is our daily driver at home. We have better reference speakers for deep, non-Bluetooth listening but Sonos products are second to none IME in terms of consumer grade sound/streaming.
The app was a non-starter for me.

So for now, chief product officer Maxime Bouvat-Merlin, who some employees have privately told me deserves a fair share of the blame for recent missteps, will remain in his role.
Of course the CPO deserves much of the blame. It was a bad product launch, after all
