Looking to see if anyone has any thoughts on Sonos connecting to MC via UPNP.  Sonos is able to connect to Rhapsodys UPNP service so I have to imagine that it is technically possible.  I have all my playlists, smartlists, etc. in MC and I'd love to be able to access them.

I just deployed Sonos for whole house audio to five zones and its AMAZING.  Whole thing took less than 30 minutes to configure.

Did you try? What did the status screen show?

I think the Sonos player is hard coded right now to look just for the Rhapsody service.  I know for a fact it connects using UPNP.  I'm trying to talk to the Sonos folks about any plans they have for generic UPNP server support.  Sonos already uses UPNP everywhere else so I have to assume generic server support is on their roadmap.

It is an amazing device, pricey, but worth it if you house isn't pre-wired.  Their proprietary wireless network is rock solid and perfectly syncs audio among the zones.  For me Sonus+MC will be the KILLER app.
