Sonos upgrade gives you Google radio and better-sounding speakers

If you regularly rely on Sonos gear to kick out the jams, today's a big day. Sonos is rolling out its promised controller update, and it's offering more improvements than you might have expected a couple of months ago. For a start, the company's devices are now much better Google Play Music companions -- you can play radio stations (curated or otherwise), fire up automatic playlists and modify your library. You'll also get noticeably improved vocal response and Sub compatibility on the Play:1 speaker, and it should be easier to both see upcoming tracks as well as navigate TuneIn radio streams. Apple Music isn't here yet (that's coming later in the year), but there's still more than enough to merit a speedy upgrade.
