For several reasons, First one app controls all my music sources and all my players easily, my preference is Squeezcommander. I have music on a NAS and several music subscription that I switch between regularly. Second you just can't touch the coolness of a Raspberry Pi, a touchscreen and a Hifiberry amp mounted in the wall feeding ceiling or bookshelf speakers. Thirdly the DIY element and the versatility. When you run SB on a Raspberry pi with the Hifiberry amp the possibility is only limited by your imagination. Using it with an amp board and a speaker kit from Parts Express is beyond cool. As far as synchronization goes I found the problem to be with the shortcomings of wi-fi and interference rather than SB and the hardware. My experience was that when a particular wireless player had network interference or the signal strength dropped for whatever reason all the players had to re-synchronize causing the music to cut out. I solved this problem by making all my players wired. I can happily stream Spotify through my whole using 5 Logitech Receivers, 1 Logitech Boom, 1 Logitech Radio and 3 Raspberry Pi/Hifiberry amp s. I can play the same thing flawlessly on all them or go in the garage and play my favorite album.
