Hi,
Think i may have made a mistake buying a Sonos play 5 with a bridge for wireless playing! I have been using my iphone 5 to play my itunes music, podcasts and music directly from apps like BBC radio app/ iplayer and others for ages now as i can get back dated programs/shows,6 music jukebox, desert island discs... all kinds of stuff, all on a little gear 4 docking station, i got with my original iphone 4, great little thing, simplicity personified but sounds rubbish!
As i thought i understood its capabilities i have wrongly it seems presumed that i could do the same with the Sonos system. But having set it up, i seem to be restricted to playing my music library and a variety of internet stations both from my PC or iphone (through its own interface and app) but i don't have the ability to fire up an app like BBC music and listen to music directly off it so losing loads of backdated music or shows from earlier in the week etc.
Am i getting this wrong somehow or not? What should i be looking at as an alternative as i will have to try and take it back somehow if it wont play things direct from apps etc, its quite limited.
If anybody can help it would be a great help!
Cheers
