Yes, definitely the trade-off - I have no desire to have tablet/phone in the bedroom, and if I did, fidgeting through to the app to operate a Sonos is not attractive to me (OK for managing a HiFi connected device though). Quite possibly, had there been an SBR equivalent in the Sonos line-up I might have jumped ship! I'm hanging in there with a mix of Raspberry Pi, Squeezebox Touch, Squeezebox Radio... Bluesound seem to have gone for a similar product range as Sonos.
