Planned obsolescence is the bane of consumer electronics. On that front, Sonos has stood out as one of the few tech companies that build longer-lasting products. In fact, the company is keen to point out that 92 percent of all the products it has ever shipped are still in use today. But now, Sonos wants you to know that all things must eventually die. The company announced that starting in May 2020, it will stop pushing software updates and new features to some of its oldest products.

A cynic might say this is a ploy by Sonos to get customers to shell out for newer speakers. Sonos claims that isn’t the case. The company says its oldest devices just aren’t powerful enough anymore.

Sonos owners are pissed. But do they have a right to be? I don’t own any Sonos products so I have no dog in the fight.
