Okay, I grudgingly bought a system years ago because it was just convenient.
The latest update is terrible and breaks all local features - no library, no local services, all search goes to their servers. (Even though they explicitly stated ~2 months ago that v1 search would remain.)
Whatever their business model is it doesn't seem to include customers.

Now what do I replace it with?

@ujay68 I've got the streaming bits covered (both and work great for me, still trying to pick one, and they also have mobile clients).

What I need replacements for is the actual multi-room + TV speaker setups, which Plex doesn't have.

(Addendum: prior to Sonos's new version from hell, with I could even easily connect my library with that platform.)

So ¹ doesn't fully implement the new search API. I thought I'd give it a look, how hard could it be?

> Search requests will come from a central Sonos cloud service, not from the user’s clients.

Yeah that's not going to work out ever 🤦

¹ a gateway to the subsonic protocol for a local media service, say
