Good luck waving that flag forever. Consumer equipment will continue to evolve faster than any CI brand can react. You'll be left telling customers that voice control is just a fad and won't catch on.
Sonos have never been about reacting. I've used it as a Source for years. It has done a decent job of providing streaming services into a system. I will NEVER rely on it to provide the primary user interface into a system... because I have ZERO control over it and Ultimately, when a client gets confused because Sonos changes the app 5 times in 6 years, its my fault.
Alexa interfaces with my Control4 and Savant systems. Its a passable secondary interface for some folks.
The new UI sucks. They know it and will likely change it again. The equipment still works at my house and surprisingly music still comes out of my speakers in the ceiling and the portable speakers I have.
of course, it still plays at my home as well. But we have the benefit of working with different products every day. We [hopefully] have some patience when it comes to user interfaces.
