Please Add Spotify Radio Function to Sonos

I love to use the spotify radio feature on my computer, but I enjoy using my sonos system as well, which doesn't currently have that function. 

 

I have been reading adding spotify radio is something being discussed currently, so please allow Sonos to add Spotify radio to their system.  I am happy to pay for the premium spotify account as I already am to enable this feature, I just want to have it integrated into the sonos system, so I can actually fully enjoy both spotify and sonos.

We’re thrilled to finally announce that per your request Radio is coming to Sonos. Start a new station from the song that’s Now Playing. Or from a search of your favourite artists with the Start Artist Radio option. Enjoy!

Just walk.... unfortunately its the only way to facilitate change... $$$$$.
When you cancel your account there is a comments section. I guarantee they
read that. If your waiting for change while being a customer, change will
never come.

I fully understand your opinion. For myselves i will take the fight. Maybee........

Agreed, I don't see why this function isn't available for premium members when Google play music allows integration already. But I have the feeling, that since this thread was started in 2013 that the answer from spotify is "no"
f1nchy

Or more accurately, the answer from Spotify is "we really don't give a f###".....

 

It seems to me that no one of any importance or influence looks on these forums, and no such person has had the decency to publicy confirm if it may be a possibility, or that, no, they're not going to make those changes regardless.

 

Spotify is the only streaming service where you cannot access radio, collection, mood stations, etc.

 

My understanding is that the problem is with Spotify and not Sonos; Sonos needs access to the API to be able to make the changes, and Spotify won't allow it. There have been rumours since the start of the year that Sonos were looking for developers to help them to improve the Sonos software to allow users to 'cast' directly from streaming apps, so maybe that will eventually give us what we want, but the fact that Sonos don't seem bothered about adding DLNA capabilities to Sonos (which would make it much easier to sent music from any mobile to) makes me think not.

 

For any Android users out there, the Android app for Google Music DOES already let you 'cast' to Sonos speakers, so that's certainly another + point for Google Music over Spotify.

Please allow the Sonos Controller to access Spotify Radio. I value this feature in Spotify highly but am being tempted to switch to Google Play or Apple Music if they offer viable alternatives. Really don't want to do this as I have used Spotify for years and am a big fan.

 

I am prepared to wait, or even pay (a small amount) extra - just want to hear that it's on its way. The Sponos app for Android shows it can be done - just need this replicated  for Apple devices.

I just canceled my Spotify Premium-subscription and started to use Google Music. At least they have radio-functionality for Sonos!
