Convergence is an amazing thing. Sonos announced yesterday their partnership with Sirius; you can now listen to your Sirius stations on your Sonos. Essentially it’s just a ton more radio channels, but it’s great for Sirius car-subscribers like myself who want to hear Howard Stern in the morning in the house. Now I’ll be able to program my Sonos to tune into Stern in the morning, just like I used to wake up to Stern on Live 105 when I was in middle school. The only sucky thing is that it requires the ‘premium radio subscription’ for $2/mo for the fancy interface…there are other workarounds though. The basic internet radio (32kbps) isn’t available over Sonos.
