Can I Play Music Too?
The PLAYBASE doubles as an all-in-one Sonos player that allows you to stream all the music on earth. Make
a selection from the Sonos music menu on your mobile device or from the MUSIC pane on a Mac or PC.
Radio
Sonos includes a radio guide that provides immediate access to thousands of free Internet radio stations and
broadcast programs. You can easily find radio stations from all over the world—music, news, and variety
programming, including archived shows and podcasts.

Music services
A music service is an online music store or online service that sells audio on a per-song, per audiobook, or
subscription basis. Sonos is compatible with several music services - you can visit our website at
www.sonos.com/music for the latest list. (Some music services may not be available in your country. Please
check the individual music service’s website for more information.)
If you are currently subscribed to a music service that’s compatible with Sonos, simply add your music service
user name and password information to Sonos as needed and you’ll have instant access to the music service
from your Sonos system.
1. To add a music service, touch Add Music Services from the Sonos music menu.
Note: If TV Autoplay is set to On, the PLAYBASE automatically stops playing
music and switches to TV audio whenever the TV is turned on. See “TV autoplay”
for more information.
