When I was growing up if you wanted music in different rooms of your house, it meant fighting over CDs with your siblings and owning multiple stereo systems. Thankfully, today most people buy their music digitally and network media players allow us to stream tunes wirelessly throughout the house to multiple users.

Logitech announced its latest Squeezebox model called the Boom all-in-one network music player. The Boom has an integrated amp, high-performance speakers, and simplified setup. All that is needed to set the Boom up is an AC outlet and a wireless network.

Getting music to all the rooms of your home can be an expensive task, especially if you have to run wires. Sonos has been selling network multi-room music systems for a while now that can stream tunes wirelessly to speakers in any room of your home. Yesterday, Sonos announced a pair of new wireless music systems and it has announced a software update.

The Sonos 2.6 update is available free to all Sonos customers. To entice users to install the new software update Sonos is offering free music worth $200 to those apply the free upgrade or register a new Sonos system. New features with the update include support for SonosNet 2.0 and MIMO, support for larger music collections on NAS or PCs, and support for Mac Leopard OS.
