With the new devices comming out (NWa3000 etc). I had read that there would be a Sonic Stage replacement called connect - tying in with the connect website.

Well following the new Connect Link download it leads to the Sonic Stage 3.2 installer :ol_biggrin:

So no SS replacement then I take it?

I'm also a bit worried about it. Hopefully it will still allow older atrac3 devices to work. I wonder if it will be integrated into Sony's Vaio Media Software. One of the biggest problems I've had with the current Sonicstage is not being able to play music downloaded from Connect through Media products because of the copy protection incompatibility.

I think the new Sony Connect software will be part of a new sony media suite that will connect network devices around the home like tv's, music devices, etc... This is the impression I got from a slide I saw on the forum somewhere.

Interesting. That sounds a lot like their current Vaio Media Software, although this might be in preparation for the PS3 connectivity. Ever since it was unveiled at E3 last year they were talking about something along those lines.

Perhaps the new CONNECT Player will rectify this issue. Sony was supposed to provide a SonicStage 3.2 patch for VAIO (supposedly in September) to rectify the new non-DRM incompatibility issue with VAIO related software. I sure miss using Do VAIO/VAIO Zone for ATRAC playback.
