Now THAT's surround sound!They're a good deal at $199. I'm very happy with my five HomePods.
You actually wrote this response? What is the point, other than being melodramatic?$199 but with taxes you gonna end up paying that $299 anyway
What are homepods good for anyway?
I have four HomePods and the ones I bought for $199 did not end up costing nowhere near what your hysteric opinion claims.
If you claim to not know what HomePod’s are good for then the internet has not been good to you.

they are amazing. Especially as a stereo pair in the back of your entertainment room as TV speakers. YEAH I SAID IT.
Seems a silly statement, echo is no where near the standard in terms of a quality speaker and I think most reasonable people would conclude that if you are going to buy a HomePod that Siri isn't the driving purchase decision, sound quality and privacy are driving that choice.Echo is still the standard. This is a toy.
They are really almost polar opposites in terms of what they excel at, Alexa/Echo seem to have the lead as far as an assistant goes but HomePod/Siri are hands down the leader from quality of sound. I wish people would stop judging HomePod based on Siri and Echo based on Alexa.
Care to elaborate? Because you don't think Siri is a good value? You think the speaker sucks? What? Have you heard one? Do you just prefer the sound of a $29 speaker?Personally I struggle to see why you'd pay even $199 for one.
