Sonos home audio have been built for family sharing but the downside is you can only use a single account for each music service. That’s about to change with the new Sonos controller app beta that lets you switch accounts immediately without needing to sign in every time you want to switch.

There will come a time when you will be able to video chat with someone speaking a different language as you and have Skype instantly translate your conversation.
