Yeah, that's a *kludge* (a mess, a lot of hassle to perform a simple
task).  ;)
It's still a *kludge* with Sonos' "updated" support.

I only commented on the link you provided which has not been updated
since 2008.  With no other reference I can only conclude it is the same
now.

What is new/different/changed now I don't know.  But reading the Zune
issues from your posted link I can only conclude that:
-  WMP is required and must be running (I wouldn't run WMP to save my
life, but that's another topic)
-  running two servers on the same computer is not smart and can be
prone to introducing more issues (ports for example)
-  needing WMP running knocks out playback options (can't use NAS as
server nor the Touch's inbuilt server)
-  can the correct WMP version even run on a Mac to access Zune DRM
infection?
-  can't use playlists
-  no Zune streaming services

And my favorite is "refreshing DRM rights".  That's like playing Oliver
Twist with your music.  "Sir, may I please have another 30 days of my
music, please?"
