Yes, I'd agree the strength of the Squeezebox platform is/will be really in the Internet Radio/Podcast area. Once one needs another CPU, there are many other very capable ways to stream from that, and far less likely to become obsolete as we are seeing with the ongoing BBC stream format changes. (Probably always solvable from a PC-side, if that leads the way.)
I'd think a lot could and should be done just by adding the ability to save configurations (eg. Playlists, Plugins, etc) once obtained from initial or infrequent mysqueezebox.com connection (or even home server) on any future Squeezebox hardware (Touch?). That the SqueeezeServer seems to be remaining and even and becoming more 'centric seems to me likely coming mainly from the ongoing failure to develop mysqueezebox.com as a strong user/media portal, and what's being described here as a severe existing hardware limitation in the early boxes. (The 'S Radio' however may be able to turn things back in what I think is probably the right direction.) -SF -- sydsfloyd67 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sydsfloyd67's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36188 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74336 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
