Excuse me while I spend a few minutes on a rant about the absurty of the
new sync UI in 7.3+.  First a bit about my setup - Nine zones controlled
by SB2s and SBR's, and three controllers.  On any given day I might add
together the master bedroom and master bath, or alternativly let my
wife sleep while listening in the bathroom.  Sometimes I want all zones
on for whole house, and other days a single zone in my office is all I
need.

Previously I simply checked boxes to bring players in and out of a
zone.  now I have to follow a sequence of switching players, then
syncing, then switching players, then syncing, then switching player,
then syncing - up to 8 times.  Unsyncing is just as ridiculous.

The Logitech folks claim this was all in the spirit of making things
consistent across devices.  Huh?  You have now made if difficult across
all interfaces!  What a philosphy - make things more difficult just so
they work the same.  I do not understand this at all.

Other quirks with the new interfact are just as interesting.  An
example: I have a sync'd zone, say study and dinig room.  I start a
song from the controller attached to study.  I then go to synchronize,
and remove the dining room from the sync group.  Guess what - the study
stops and the dining room continues playing!  Huh?

PLEASE make this useable - if you want to play in the same league as
Sonos, you need to make bringing players on and off easy!

Many thanks!
