Sonos: My kind of network music system
The Digital Music System knows and loves networks.
By Keith Shaw
Sonos certainly isn't the first company to have a networked digital music player, but it's the first one to understand networking.
This became obvious when I loaded the software on a PC and it gave me the option to play music stored on a network share - in my case, a LinkStation network-attached storage (NAS) device from Buffalo Technology. Other systems might let you play music off a NAS, but only the Sonos Digital Music System lets you do it so elegantly.
