No, no, no! It's the Squeezebox they hate, they leave it alone and use iTunes all the time, plus they can buy music they like instead of suffering my stuff. They don't like the Squeezebox because it is hard to use by comparison (their words), doesn't display pictures and they can't search for music easily, so they leave that for me. I even wrote my own Java app to control the Squeezebox from a laptop so that I can see the album artwork for the song that's playing and get fast interaction with selecting playlists, tracks etc. Screenshot below in case anyone is interested. It gives me back some of the immediacy and clarity that iTunes has and the Slim web interface sadly lacks. It's not perfect by any means, but works better for me. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: slimjava.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2566| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- CardinalFang ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CardinalFang's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=962 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33777 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
