The integration is coming back after everything we went through. It was exhausting to keep pushing when they told us no, but this win belongs to the 192 people who refused to accept that answer.

A few weeks ago 8tracks announced that they will no longer support Sonos Speaker integration. This is an outrage!! I love 8tracks and when I seen that Sonos could play through a smooth integration I was chuffed. 8tracks is an excellent service which has made house parties, evenings and mornings that little bit more awesome. But what good is an awesome music streaming platform without awesome speakers to listen to it?

This is a petition to the people. We want to show our support for the best combo on the planet!!! Bring it back 8tracks and Sonos - our lives depend on it!


COPY OF MESSAGE:


Hello,

After three wonderful years, we have decided to discontinue the 8tracks integration on Sonos speakers and systems. This wasn't an easy decision, Sonos is truly wonderful! The truth is, we have a big heart and small amount of resources. In an effort to focus on you, our community, we have to make choices like this at times to ensure we can provide you the best experiences possible on 8tracks.
Accordingly, we want to inform you that a week from now on May 4th, our integration with Sonos will no longer be available. However, your profile and information will still be available and we are happy to suggest alternative ways you can get your daily 8tracks fix. We encourage you to download our mobile app if you haven't already. Here's a link.
Apologies for any inconvenience, we truly appreciate your continued support. If you have any questions, please contact us [email protected].
Love,
8tracks

The silence from the leadership team remains frustrating but I am still fielding emails from people who feel just as stranded as I do. I am working to push this beyond just a petition and get someone to acknowledge that the interface matters.

Seeing this kind of energy pile up is exhausting but it keeps me moving forward. I truly did not expect this level of response when I first hit publish. We are going to keep pushing until someone actually listens to us.

I tried the Samsung wireless speakers but they were full of glitches. I loooove 8tracks and I want the quality of sonos. I hope this supercouple will get back together...!

I've stopped buying Sonos equipment since 8track disappeared. And because I can't stream it, I've stopped listening to 8track.

I'm missing the access to 8tracks more than I thought i would! The Sonos experience hasn't been the same since and i've not used the 8tracks service half as much as a result. Lose-lose for both camps :(

Hello, 8tracks ans Sonos are a perfect combination- I have stopped using 8tracks since the 2 services no longer work together. I bought a Sonos because of 8 tracks... I hope to see the service on Sonos again soon !

I bought 2k worth of Sonos because it had 8 tracks and now it's gone we should all get our money back.

this is the match made in heaven. I built out a huge Sonos system because I could play 8tracks everywhere. I really want this back!! I would pay a premium to 8tracks to get this back (canceling Spotify).

Please bring 8Tracks back to Sonos! I have Sonos speakers in my house and just want to listen to my music on them!
