RK1313 As you say i do not want to call you a lier so here is what Sonos has to say about the track limits.
Version 1.0 - 30,000 Version 1.1 - 30,000 Version 1.2 - 40,000 Version 1.3 - 40,000 Version 2.0 - 50,000 Version 2.1 - 50,000 So yes they can get UPTO 50,000 tracks but then they temper that with: The current limit is 50,000 tracks or filled RAM in the ZonePlayers -- whichever comes first. Long file names, track names, playlists, and composers use more RAM. If you can simplify your file names, you'll be able to squeeze in a few more tracks. Classical track names can be very long and ripping programs tend to throw the whole track name into the file name. By simplifying the track names, you'll free up more index space. Finally, you may have some seasonal music (Christmas, Easter, etc.) that does not need to be linked into the library all year. If you move each season's music into a separate share, only the currently linked shares will dig into the 50K limit. Also by reading through the forums many people are stating that they have hit the Memory limit with only 35,000 to 38,000 tracks and have minimal tagging as it is. To remove more tags looses searching capabilities and having to reduce the file name length should just not have to be done. There is enough to do just adding music to your system with out having to worry about the file name length. I surely know that I do not want to have to re-index my collection every time I want to listen to a to seasonal music. That requires that I split my music up and put it on different shares or folders. I just want to keep my collection in one place and have the ability to listen to Christmas Music in July if I want to.
