I think you are reading too much into what I was saying, the reliablity
issues people post are usually down to inherent networking issues. 

I was just speaking generally, and I obviously have not put my point
across very well. I don’t think Sean has ever come across as a
greedy businessman (clearly we have different idea of what that means).
Sean always came across as a guy very passionate about what he did and
produced the product he wanted to and showed a great deal of pride in
his work and a hunger for success. He brought onboard capable people who
shared his vision. Success naturally followed and he (I hope) has done
well for himself financially. Good on him. 

I think all I was trying to say making something very easy to use, by
itself, does not always equal success although its part. Look at the
Philips Streamium stuff, very simple to use as its just plain unpnp,
with no plugins, limited format support etc. But they are very
uninspiring products and don’t generate a fraction of the buz that
Squeezebox products create in online forums. Frankly they are just dull.
I don’t know the sales stats, but I have never met anyone who owns
one.
