No one expects Sonos to "decouple the operating system so I can run a web server on it", people rarely crack open their NAIM in order to run a software development kit on it. For the cost of an SD card you can have one minute moOde being your music streamer and the next minute a fully up-to date Raspberry Pi with what ever you want on it. If you want both at the same time, a few quid more gets you TWO Raspberry Pi.
Precisely! Four of my six RPi are dedicated (single use) music streamers. I have two others which are for “playing around” as "general purpose" micro computers. At fort quid a pop, it really is not worth the aggravation of trying to make one Pi be “all things to all men”……
As every, YMMV.
