New partnerships will let you tell your Sonos speakers what music to play

Sonos took a look at the future and realized it's time to put partners first. The wireless audio company announced it would roll out Amazon Alexa integration early next year, enabling voice control for Sonos systems. It's also pushing out a host of other software updates, including one that will let Spotify users control their Sonos systems with Spotify's mobile and desktop apps. Overall, the changes are all part of Sonos's effort to become the sound platform for the connected home. "We believe Music is killer app of connected home." said Sonos President Patrick Spence.
