Great, simple way to distribute music around your home:
This is a basic part of the Sonos system. It's used to connect the larger system to the internet. The advantage of the Sonos system the simple set-up. I had the whole 3 room system set up (without any call to customer service) in just a few hours. I considered alternate (and cheaper) systems like the Logitech Squeezebox. However, the alternatives use an existing wireless network. With one kid playing WOW and another downloading video, bandwidth is already um, squeezed. Of course, I could beef up my network,... more info
Great for connecting receiver to computer music files:
Very satisfied with this product.
I wanted to listen to the music files on my PC and to playlists on Rhapsody on my home audio system that is in a different room.

soundbridge works most of the time:
Given the stated distance Sonos nodes are supposed to transmit between, I shouldn't have needed the sound bridge, but highly intermittent reception forced me to buy it. It's worked fine except last week when it just dropped from the network. Going through the "find new node" process rediscovered it and it's working fine again. Coincidentally, one of my controllers froze up at the same time, so I guess you just have to get used to fixing it. At least that's very simple.
Fixed a few drop-outs in remote Sonos Zones when Microwave was running:
I have eight zones spread over four floors. Two of the zones are near each other, but remote from all the others. When running a nearby microwave, they would sometimes drop the music for several seconds. I installed one sonos bridge, which helped reduce drop outs from once every couple days to once a week or so. Since installing the second bridge, there have not been more dropouts for those remote zones (about three weeks)
