There's nothing wrong with implementing a windows-only feature, is there? I
would love to see this, even though I understand it's not multi-platform.
But I don't see it as being any different than having an option for iTunes.
(which is multi-os, but NOT multi-platform)
that depends. If the use of a 'plays for sure' logo costs money, then a lot of
linux users would be pretty irate to have to pay extra money for a feature that
is completely unavailable to them.
I suppose I shouldn't be paying for co-ax out, or a headphone jack, since I don't need, or use them either? We all pay for things we don't use...that would be no different.

Except if it's on their competitors systems.
Of course they have a vested interest in their own OS. I would expect
nothing less. It's no different (again) than iTunes not supporting WMA, or
if Apple chose to only make iTunes for MacOS.
If anyone IS listening out there....I would LOVE to see support for plays
for sure....along with NATIVE WMA decoding on the SB2 at least. I mean, not
supporting these things can (and maybe WILL) be the difference between me
continuing to love and support the SB, or going elsewhere for my needs. I
think the folks at slim devices need to consider this, and realize that for
better or for worse, windows rules the PC world. (and maybe even that MS is
not all-evil like many like to preach)
well, as a user of SB who runs the server on linux, I'd have to go elsewhere if
support for linux had to go. But I'm used to this kind of crap. (oh, and
calling it crap...is must my opinion)
I'm not suggesting dropping multi-OS support, but if SOME features are only available for SOME OS's.....there's NOTHING wrong with that. As for crap...one man's crap is another man's Oh! Henry bar.
