mibook84:And no support for the encore. I think B&O did a very bad move there. The encore is for music not located on a BS5, so why? I'm glad I didn't get one now :) and I don't use spotify but it shows how stupid decisions will cause monetary damage to B&O.
Yes the lack of support for the Encore has put me off ever buying an audio system from B&O ever again. Worst product I've ever bought from them.

mickhoog:About time. It's a great service to offer to the BS5. But what of the encore? Why no encore version or is that just coming later because the 5 was out before the encore?
StUrrock:If the Encore ever gets anymore features, I'll eat my hat…… scarf and gloves!
mickhoog:You can never have enough hat gloves and shoes!!
petermc:Pardon my ignorance but how do you search for a particular album or artist on Spotify on the BS5? All easy on iPad / IPhone but can't seem to find it on the BS5 Thanks Peter

Thanks Peter
Hi Peter,
there is no search function - yet!
And how it then is supposed to work, no one knows.
To this subject also see the thread "Sporfy is coming......"
Greetings Millemissen
There is a tv - and there is a BV
StUrrock:That's what my wife always says!! :)
If there will be support for the Encore AND you can control the BS5 Encore with an ipad app as well - I will start considering this setup!
