Re: New Sonos Player - Airport as an alternative

["noel_pilot" <HA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Main issue with the airport expresses is the fact you can only play to
ONE airport at a time.

i.e. If you are streaming from a pc to an airport express in the
lounge you can't even have the sound coming out from the pc at the
same time let alone another airport express.  Not sure if there's a
way around this yet?!

I have got one for christmas more as something to play with, an easy
way to give me wifi, printer sharing and to have a play with the
itunes side just in my own room than as a structured multi room system!!
