RE: Which is one reason

The firmware upgrades have been free, but yes, you had to upgrade hardware after the first generation to get all the new features. Not unusual, especially with an evolving technology. I didn't buy a Bluesound Node until generation 2 so avoided the need to upgrade.

I'm probably not representative of users needing the latest streaming features available; it's a small part of what I listen to. For serious listening I use a NAS library with ethernet connectivity to the renderer (Node 2i and external DAC) with a Win10 tablet for the controller. If I upgrade anything right now it'll be the DAC.
