It's about the need for proprietary applications in order to steam the services one pays for.
Spotify streams fine with SONOS because SONOS has an app for streaming it. OTOH, SONOS does not allow streaming of QOBUZ in the US but it does in Europe, as there is no app available in the US. SONOS claims that QOBUZ is not licensed in the US and I subscribed while living in France.
Sadly, the NA7004 has no Spotify app that I know of, whether you pay for Spotify or not. It WILL play Spotify via Air Play, if you have an Apple product on the same wired network. The Apple OS-X app for QOBUZ claims to support Air Play but I haven't been able to make it work in the US. I'll try in in Europe next month and see if it works there.
Been thinking about getting a SqueezeBox Touch on Ebay but don't know if I have the energy or concentration left in my aging brain deal with all of the third-party software needed to make it do what I want.
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
