I can't find it. Where did you find this?

Okay, i found it, i had to switch the website language to english 👍

It's in the 'Company' section on the website. Not sure how useful it's going to be though.

Finally some light seeping through in the decision making process ... Can't really see why they need to bother with a survey, though. Fairly self-evident where the market's headed and where B&O should be.

I actually want a combination of those features - neither A, B or C is my ideal system.

I agree with Puncher on this one. Not sure I'd want an internet/DAB focussed system (HiFi????) with video/pictures to the exclusion of CD with FM access etc.

Snap! Me too.

I don't see why these system should be mutually exclusive. Once the hardware is in place then the rest is just software.

i was amused at the how much would you pay bit

if only because you can get most of the stuff they mention for nothing on the net

They're asking questions relative to where they've been headed; to what they could do with BeoSound 5; and to what other providers in the market are offering.

There's been talk of connecting BS5 to Pandora-like services, with "millions of tracks of music." But I'm not interested, since these tracks are in lousy quality, and buying B&O speakers to listen to crap defeats the purpose.

That survey would have been a lot more interesting if it asked about Mac versus Windows, whether I was using iTunes (no matter which OS I'm on), etc.

The trouble B&O and others will have is in getting properly paid for a music system such as a hybrid of A+B. I said I would be willing to pay €5000 for system A, but I do have that functionality now, as well as some of the benefits of system B -- and I didn't pay €5000 for it. (As Flappo says just above, most of it was free to install on my Macs.)

But it's a positive, overall, at least they've pulled their heads out of the sand and are seriously considering they may have been going down the wrong route. (Which is hard when your head's in the sand, but you get my meaning.)
