A basic question Im not sure what the answer is. If I have one Spotify or Apple Music account registered on a Sonos system can I play more than one song at a time on multiple speakers?

Not supposed to be able to. If you only had one account tied to the Sonos there is no way to have multiple instances of the same app open to play different songs

This is not normally something that I do, but as a quickie trial I now have five different streams running from my Spotify account. I'm only a few minutes into this experiment and I don't know what will happen over the long term.

There are no intrinsic Sonos rules, a track is a track, however, each service will have different rules about this.

Note that there are two ways to use Spotify. I can't imagine that the Spotify App will allow streaming to multiple players. I'm using the Sonos controller.

I left things playing, just checked, and one stream had stopped, but could be restarted. There were no error messages.

Edit: I just revisited this and it appears that the stop was due to reaching the end of the stream's Queue, not some sort of error boot.
