It doesn't say that to me at all. The Sonos had two things on the SB: A Simpler to setup for dummies B Much cooler remote with built in display The SB OTOH is much more flexible and powerful (IMHO at least) and integrates well into an existing computer network (which I and many others already have, and more people will have in the future). SD couldn't really fix 'problem' A without losing some of that power and flexibility. People like me wouldn't want them to, we want that power and flexibility! But the cool Sonos remote made me hesitate, I did want that remote. Now I have it and the Sonos has no more advantages to me. History learns that people in the long run always tend to go with the most flexible and powerful solutions. Many companies have tried to sell dumbed down computers. Historically, most of them have failed. If I were runnig SD I probably wouldn't want to go down that road. That they chose to create a similar remote tells me that they didn't want to go the other route.
