Have you seen what they do to your bandwidth usage? I thought they'd be great to play pink noise/sleep sounds in mine and my kids' room. Then they started pausing the music to say "One moment, I'm working on that" randomly at 4 AM or such. If the wifi blinks off, we get another message.

I don't use them anymore, but my kid still likes theirs and doesn't mind the hiccups.
