Is it mostly the size/space? I can stream Spotify as well as computer files directly to my receiver. And I can plug my iphone into my receiver and stream any app or whatever

They got their initial popularity because they made it easy to stream your own music residing on your PC.

It's still a nice setup, although with a lot of Airplay devices out there now Sonos seems less relevant.

That's what it's about now. Initially all they had were the CONNECT devices.

So it seems like maybe the biggest perk is sticking a speaker in a bathroom or something where you aren't going to put a receiver?

That and the space.

For the same price, I could just put separate receiver and speakers in multiple rooms

Do you still have to use Sonos software to do everything or does it work with Spotify/iTunes?

I was streaming Spotify last night from the Sonos app on my iphone.

But I can stream Spotify to my receiver too so wireless streaming isn't something unique to Sonos

Easy to use, solid sound quality for the price point.

Like the Apple of speakers -- would not satisfy true audiophiles who want to get in and customize, and are willing to do the legwork to put together the right components, but your grandmother could figure out how to use it.

Sonos is capable of satisfying audiophiles with their Connect devices though. Run the digital out on the Connect to a high end DAC and it's just as good as any CD player.
