Beats are mid-fi. It's hard to imagine Sonos will be any different, as their home speakers are somewhere between lo- and mid-fi.

I'll stick with my B&W P7 phones.

I, for one, like the small form Nano for use in the gym and while out paddling. Apple Watch doesn't have enough capacity (and I hate the sound quality w/BT) and the Touch is too damned big. Hopefully my current Nano will hang in there for several more years. Apple's product is superior to the competition and, of course, operates well with my other Apple equipment.

Oh well. Change happens.

I know some feel that bluetooth is the future for sound on the iPhone, but I found the sound degradation unacceptable. I've tried dozens of bluetooth headphones and speakers and all are really pretty bad. I use a high end paid of Shure earbuds for high noise settings and a set of B&W P7s for other settings, and both blow bluetooth away. So I'm hoping Apple doesn't write off those of us who want high quality audio as an option.

How about protesting in front of the SF FBI offices? Or in front of the District Court House? Focus the attention on the culprits.
