It's actually not slackers fault.  Nor Sirius radio which has a very
similar message.  It's the people who maintain the code for
mysqueezebox.com.  They screwed up sometime a little after Logitech took
over.  I've been tring to get his to andy's attention; however, it's not
something simple he can just revert to quickly.  A lot of changes were
made since the time it was working correctly; such as adding more
services.

There's really no way around this; even if you have multiple legitamate
accounts; which tried.  The problem is with the same account, same
player... mysqueezebox.com seems to somehow leave some kind of lingering
ghost audio stream behind after a song change... making the music
service provider like sirius/slacker to think there are two songsbeing
played at the same time on the same machine. The sad thing is I dont
think this is something I can control even on my firewall by killing the
older duplicate audio stream since I think the issue is at the logitech
backend and they way it provisions audio streams for each music
service.

Ohhhhh Andy... feel like fixing this once in for all instead of passing
it on to another backend server engineer by asking for a bugzilla
report?  I'm sure there's at least been a couple of reported already.

I really wish Logitech/mysqueezebox.com would just get out of the way
and allow direct connections between our squeezebox servers and the
music providers.  This would also prevent those down times when
mysqueezebox.com isnt down for maintenance; also, reducing lag.  I can
name several reasons actually.
