OK. No I am again worried about the future of BBC Radio on SlimDevices
players.

This, compounded by a recent comment on another thread that the plugin
contributors had not been consulted (or even informed) about the
changes in the plugin architecture implemented in 7.1. If Logitech
don't appear to appreciate the plugin authors then I must be right to
worry about the future of BBC Radio on the players, surely?

I sharply remember the way that James Craig, the author of the original
Last.fm plugin was casually informed that Logitech were intending to
include Last.fm functionality in the next version of SlimServer...
publically, in the forums by the Logitech employee writing the new
Last.fm code... and this just after James had spent the last two weeks
upgrading the code for his plugin to work for the latest SlimCenter
plugin!

I am beginning to have a slightly uncomfortable feeling that it might
not be so sensible of me to invest as much money and time as I do in a
system that relies for some of its most important components (i.e.
AlienBBC) on third party and unpaid contributors, when the new owner of
the company might be beginning to show that it attributes little value
to them and treats them without much concern.

Discuss... or not.
