Closed loop software is definitely a dead end in digital. If you can get some years out of it, and it suits your purposes that's fine I guess. But yeah pricey stuff like Lumin, Sim Moon Mind (though I'd expect them to be around) etc. can become paper weights. I think there's room for the Bluesound, Sonore niche as they are plug and play but don't necessarily cost a fortune for people like me who want that PnP option.
I've only been able to keep using my SB Touch through the devotion of Michael Herger of Logitech who's kept LMS going through the years, created Spotty which is much better than the Spotify app for it, and the Qobuz app.
