Good evening,
In a B&O discussion thread in flatpanels.dk, the following job offer was mentioned:

Thank you to our Sponsors
B&O will build its own audio streaming platform
31 replies
Oh yeah.. Let's do that! Let's compete with Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, Qobus.
Djee... I'm wondering why B&O is losing money...
I do hope that someone at management level steps up and says STOP.
Transparant integration of streaming services: YES... Building a platform allowing you to stream your music throughout the house in a user friendly way: YES.
But please not a additional commercial music streaming service
Having completely read the article... yes... by all means... please build a robust audio system with a descent user friendly control!
Karel.

That’s not what they mean by streaming platform. It’s clear from the context that they are talking about hardware.
This could be the make or break product for B&O. Their record of software driven equipment has not been very impressive in the past.
And we still have not got group feature, stereo pair or group alarms?Deezer interface on BV11 is basically unusable. This can’t be serious!?!
Say goodbye to Network Link then....
outside chance whatever platform they build is compatible, in some broad sense.
But longer term, 5 years or so, NL will be history.
Better start saving up for some new BS cores then😉Say goodbye to Network Link then.... outside chance whatever platform they build is compatible, in some broad sense. But longer term, 5 years or so, NL will be history.
I’ve been saying for nearly a year now that NL will be dead in the near future. It’s already an 20-80 split between NL and AP(2)/CC so it makes sense in a way. Fotunately both of those work well if not better than NL.

Just because you don’t use it 🤔
Ask Willie that question.
P.S. I am a heavy NL user - don’t give a sh*t about AP2 - I use AP, because you can redirect that via NL.
CC is nice, when you stream (video or audio) to one device - not for audio-multiroom.......unless you want to get trapped in the Google Home world.

Careful, you’ll have awoken the beast with that comment!
