Also relying on the Sonos app to keep in touch with my Mac seems to be one troublesome link that can be done away with.

I love iTunes for organising music (smart playlists particularly), and having to update the Sonos library whenever I buy new music is a pain. I've also been using the Audio Cast 3rd party app for a few weeks, which allows direct playback, and finding it no worse than the Sonos app in terms of stability, though it's pretty basic.

I'm browsing this thread and others to decide whether investing in a One is worth it to allow me to do that. I've been a Sonos user for 6/7 years and one of the things I've found really frustrating from the start is not being able to play direct from iTunes.

I'd be really interested to know why using iTunes via the Sonos library is preferable.
