Näin se tehdään oikein:

Bose lakkauttaa vanhimpien älykaiutintensa tuen lähiaikoina. Mutta yhtiö julkaisi rajapintojen kuvaukset avoimena lähdekoodina - ja siirtää ison osan toiminnallisuudesta suoraan kännykkäsovellukseen.

Eli tuen loppumisesta huolimatta älykaiuttimet eivät muutu "tyhmiksi", vaan niihin voidaan luoda jopa uusiakin toimintoja.

Right, that last one's gone live so it's time to round up today's #Hackster articles. First up, a rare volte-face from #Bose - well, kinda: instead of bricking its SoundTouch app entirely in February, it's now releasing a final update to allow some functionality when the cloud servers are turned off *and* opening up the API so others can write compatible software.

No, nothing's been "open-sourced," despite what you may have read elsewhere.

I tip my hat to #Bose for giving owners of soon-to-be End of Life/support speakers the garantuee that the devices will continue to function and giving them the information needed to collectively build new tools to do even more with them. Thank you, Bose!

A few months after Bose announced it would end cloud services for SoundTouch speakers, the company has extended the deadline to May, added more features that will continue to work and open sourced its APIs for devs to create their own tools. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/01/bose-open-sources-its-soundtouch-home-theater-smart-speakers-ahead-of-eol/ #Bose #BoseSoundTouch #PlannedObsolescence

"Bose open-sources its SoundTouch home theater smart speakers ahead of end-of-life."

Kudos to #Bose for doing this. I've often called on companies to open the code to products they've decided to lay down or stop supporting. If any have actually done it, I haven't noticed. I hope this move is widely imitated.

#OpenSource

Bose is open-sourcing its old smart speakers instead of bricking them

I got a #Bose #SoundTouch30 and I received this e-mail to inform me that they will stop to support the #SoundTouch products line. I will not able to play music from #Deezer neither use the radio service #TuneIn.
I will try to use my #raspberrypi model 1B as a #musicpd server then send the output to the speaker with AUX output. If it doesn’t work a will get soon a brick. I got all my CDs collection encoded in FLAC.
I will not bought another kind of these connected products anymore.
