Given what their algorithm’s can do, they could build a profile of you based simply on what sites your IP address shows up on. That’s radically different to individual sites recording your IP address.

I've done a fair bit of research but have failed to get a definitive answer on wired v Bluetooth v WiFi connections for the speakers. Spoke to my electrician today and he said he hasn't wired a house for speakers in 5 years (200 houses or so!) I'm not against wiring up if it gets the best results. I've a healthy enough budget set aside for this too (could go up to €3,000) My worst nightmare would be to end up with a lag between picture and sound. Oh and I would be using this system regularly for music too. But I don't stream music, I save it to my phone and play from there. So Alex and her ilk are not of much use to me. (underfloor heating) Any tips greatly appreciated. Ta.
