Sonos systems all still have a 65,000 track limit. Serious users are disqualified from owning any Sonos equipment until this limit is fixed, and engineering has claimed that outliers with large libraries are not their market since inception, rather than growing their indexing hash above two bytes.
The 65,000 track limit only applies if operating in serverless mode. This is the mode that most people will use as most people don't have anywhere near 65k tracks. It's also a mode that competing systems don't support, so it can't be compared with these other systems which require a server.
"Serious Users" who have more than 65k tracks can run a server (just like the other systems out there) which will give them an unlimited number of tracks. You can also use services like Rhapsody and Napster to give you access to millions of tracks at your fingertips.
