Would be great if you could use your own server, and that the server code was open.

- vineyardmike 7y agoIt would be great if they gave the hardware away for free too. But alas, the evil company wanted to make money. Those pirates.
- jjav 7y agoThat's why I stick with the squeezebox ecosystem. Open source server which runs locally. The hardware is long since discontinued (but plentiful and easily available on craigslist etc) and it can never be obsoleted as everything runs locally.

I have one alongside my original Squuezebox. They sync perfectly for multiroom audio. With a DAC, it runs fine on a Zero. Cheap.

- o-__-o 7y agoLet’s make an open source Sonos clone and call it Fauxnos. It can be powered by a raspberry pi integrated into a speaker running mpd. Who wants to join my git repo?

- wiml 7y agoI've been running that system for a few years (with control via MALP or ncmpc mostly). Works pretty well.
