I'm really glad to hear a lot of you have similar stories, especially the one about Sonos. I thought there was something wrong with me.

Once in a while a speaker or home automation distributor calls me to remind me about speakers, receiver, and control systems. I feel really bad about telling them I don't use their products much any more because of Sonos. I even had to install a Sonos system for one of the owners of a large distributor of popular speakers.
