Looking to get my first HomePod in the coming weeks.
I Don’t pay for Apple Music streaming but do havtwo dozen gigs worth of music I’ve saved up over the decade. Presumably these shouldn’t be any issue to stream right? The music exists on both my iPhone and iTunes on my MBP. I’m guessing my MacBook Pro has to be flipped open and on for it to work.
would streaming from Spotify work as well? Considering it’s Apple I would imagine to some degree it would be cumbersome when compared to streaming from iTunes or the iPhone music app.
I hear stereo is a thing when someone has two homepods which is tempting. I hear it makes music sound richer but have also heard that watching movies and YouTube videos isn’t all it’s cracked up to be with two homepods. Can anyone explain why?
can I get sound coming from my hdtv (which has an Apple TV) to go through my (future) homepod(s)? Follow up question would be if it could do that even if I didn’t have an Apple TV but my hdtv does have Bluetooth.
Is there a max limit as to the stereo feature? 2 seems ideal but I have a friend that isn’t a big fan of his so may want to purchase that one too and am not sure if I would prefer to have one HomePod in each room or if I would want like 4 homepods in the living room for a movie theater like experience... or for say the one time a year i throw a kick-a$$ Halloween party.
