There is no way you can predict who will or will not be here in the future. Small vendors with low volume, high value ( and high profit) product are more likely to stay in the market segment but you don't want to pay premium price. Big vendors (who will be around in 5 yrs) can make big investments and just as easily pull out again - remember Linksys/Ciso's home audio ( http://www.digitaltrends.com/media-streamer-reviews/linksys-wireless-home-audio-system-review/ ) There is no guarantee that Sonos will last as the market is changing and it is basiclaly a one product (albeit with a few variations) company - does Sonos have the revenue & resources necessary to develop new products ? I think the only way to get the guarantee you want is to take complete control - otherwise buy an off the shelf product with the expectation that technology will change in the next 3-5yrs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99871 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
