LG has announced a new multi-room music streaming solution to compete with the likes of Sonos called Music Flow. Like the Sonos systems, different speakers connect to your home network, and with LG's Music Flow Player app you can stream music to any of those speakers. The app can pull music that's locally stored on any device, too, so long as it's connected to the same network. You can also stream music from your phone or internet radio stations.
As a bonus, you'll be able to control Music Flow speakers with LG's HomeChat service and the Line messaging app. Like with the other smart appliances LG has been pushing, you can text your home network to start music or get recommendations.
The speakers aren't available yet, but LG plans on releasing the 40 and 70 watt speakers as well as the central controller in European countries by this September, and then the 30 watt speaker and soundbar shortly after that. Hopefully we'll get some pricing details soon.
