OK, tell me about the library management and playlist management
features Olive or Sooloos have.
Also: if you want an xk$ system, buy one and not a 2xx$ system.

May be. I just say: show me one that has more to offer WRT the aspects I
mentioned.
Again: SB is not a x000$ system and it never will be. If that's what you
want, go somewhere else. Oh, you don't get what you want there, now why
are you complaining?

to the mainstream for audiophiles. It's great but there's no market for
this.

Probably never. But what is a number giving you? Would you be more happy
if 7.8 was called 8.0 instead? Like with Firefox where I now have 4
major releases each year and I can't even tell you about a single change
since 3 major releases ago? Is that what you want?

What do you want?
SQ will not get better, it's already too high end for 99% of the
potential market, people don't appreciate it.
