Over 7 years later and let's say you are 2/3 wrong. This site continues to thrive and is the most active, product-based forum I've encountered. LMS development continues privately with the goal of it continuing to function without MSB.com. There are now multiple solutions for non-SB players that work seamlessly with LMS. Logitech's stewardship of the product line was clumsy and unfortunate (there's your 1/3 correct, the product got killed commercially), but the core functionality of our Squeezeboxen continues and will do so for the foreseeable future. I, for one, pick up SB units on e-bay as needed to keep one or two on the shelf and I continue to help family and friends set up their own LMS/SB systems to enjoy the benefits I have had for so many years.
