> A new house bought today could have 10 phone sockets and 0 Ethernet sockets.

That's nonsense. Not in a new house. Maybe one from 20 years ago.

Anyway nice find. It's always annoying when there's a product that you know should exist but simply doesn't.

I'm currently trying to find a reasonably priced Bluetooth Auracast receiver so I can play audio to multiple rooms from my phone (no way am I investing in Sonos after all their bullshit).

There should be loads of these but the only ones I can find seem to be battery powered wearable devices aimed at tour groups, or hundreds of pounds.

The 10 phone sockets are pretty unlikely, true, but 0 Ethernet? Probably more common than not. If anything, modern builds are doing less ethernet than ever because they assume everyone is just using WiFi.

		Ah yeah I quoted too much. I meant the phone sockets thing. Zero ethernet seems to be the norm still unfortunately because most people do just use WiFi.

Why would they have ethernet sockets? Only one of the four computers I own has one, and I've never used it. I don't think this is unusual.
