Software updates
Is there a way of stopping the incessant software updates?
They seem to come out with a minor tweak every 2-3 days. They don't seem to alter the software much individually, though probably add up to a lot over time. Why not consolidate them into a larger upgrade once per month or once per quarter?

Actually, I don't mind more frequent updates. Keeps the features and bug fixes flowing while reducing risk of breaking things by combining many changes into a single release. It's a more iterative way of doing things. Some releases will be bigger than others of course depending on what's being released.

I use pihole on a raspberry pi to block updates.
Since the introduction of BluOS 4, every update that was supposed to fix bugs also made room for new ones. The oldest, and most annoying bugs for me dates year back, and will probably never be fixed.

Or use nextdns and block it there

Personal choice I guess, but blocking sends the wrong message IMHO. I'd rather us, users, set a positive, high expectation for continuous improvement and quality releases. Unless BluOS is being abandoned, which I don't think is the case, they'll get their release quality and rhythm right.

Have you seen the numerous requests on this forum of people asking to rollback after an update because it broke something?
As long as Bluesound keeps introducing new bugs in new releases this is what you get.
Maybe if they start to use proper testscripts and regression testing they will finally start releasing quality releases.

I am using Technitium DNS which I run on a very cheap fanless PC from Amazon.
It allows me to subscribe to several free blocklist services, which means I live ad-free :-)
The site you need to block is: upgrade.nadelectronics.com
