Thanks for all the feedback on this.  I don't have a Squeezebox yet, but
was looking at getting one for my parents' house, where the "iPod comes,
iPod goes" use case will be common.  And since this is a non-geek
environment, ease of use is important.

That would definitely be an important enhancement.  I see the sense of
the iTunes/SlimServer approach of sucking in files as soon as they're
played.  It's one less step for the most common scenario.  But it would
be nice if SS could detect that the file source is removable media and
not automatically add the file (or at least track the media to see if
it's removed at some point).

The other enhancement I'd really like to see is the ability to play a
CD directly from the drive without ripping, or at least with on-the-fly
transcoding.  I did see a thread awhile back about using the Shoutcast
server to stream music from Winamp to SS, but I wasn't able to get this
to work.  But even if I did, it's not a parent-friendly solution.
