Just looked it up. It was with Sonos. It was also when they removed the ability to stream to multiple devices at once (I think that changed , but got rid of a lot of my chrome speakers due to the decline in recognition.)

They were discontinued because they lost a patent case. This one I won’t blame on Google… cept maybe for their legal team not flagging it for patent infringement.

Also don’t forget to look at your insulation around your lines outside each year. They need replacing sometimes. If you can feel cold, you need a new one. If you don’t, you’ll see ice forming in the summer, and that is very very bad. Don’t forget to test heat and cold BEFORE you really need it (we just tested ours on a decent warm day)

I go to an HVAC supplier every year and buy this green can of amazing chemicals. Spray the fins, let sit for about 15min, then spray off with a hose. Gleaming, shiny metal.

Honestly I upgrade every few years and isually have to purchase a new mobo anyhow. I do think this could lead to less options for mobos though.
