Still the best
Still a brilliant way of playing music. I use with a marantz amplifier and optical cable.
Music is synced across the house with a series of squeezeboxes.
Total cost of all is less than one Sonos speaker or device.
It does what it does exceptionally well.
Cons are no bluetooth, no alexa etc, need to pay for Spotify access, but these are better achieved anyway via a different device like smart TV (which seems to be able to use the lms server surprisingly) or echo.
Using raspberry pi as alternative is likely something I don't have time to set up at the moment.
I have not 7sed Chromecast, which like logitech abandoned their audio streamer. I would be v interested to know how easy it is to set up multiroom audio streaming from a hdd nas or pc with chromecast or similar at lowish cost, but my guess is it would not match the functionality of squeezebox
