I was a bit upset when I discovered that I needed to connect my new Bose speaker to internet just to configure it, but at least it is usable without internet, so I blacklisted it in my router.
- tannhaeuser 6y agoInternet-connected speakers are a no-go, will send home what you're listening.
- NoPicklez 6y agoSpotify sends home what I am listening to, why would I care if my speakers do as well. I can also control Sonos through the Sonos app or directly through Spotify. Also these speakers have only improved over the years through software improvements which would have only been made possible having a connection to the internet.
- tannhaeuser 6y agoA speaker's output transfer function is determined by the drivers, the chassis, bass reflex or not, frequency splitter, etc. Software has nothing to do with it. And even if you're only listening to Spotify or using fully-integrated equipment from Sonos or others, you will care if your speaker decides to play ads, in addition to Spotify ads.
