In order to actually break into the mass market with the squeezebox Logitech would have to dumb it down to the point where any and all appeal to the Enthusiast would be lost, I happen to work for Tech Support in a IT Company, you'd be surprised at the level of technical knowledge the Mass market has, they often don't even know what OS is running on their PC, or what Product they are contacting us about, so how do you want them to handle Installation of SBS, Third Party Plugins and so on? it just doesn't work for the Mass market if it requires even the most basic technical knowledge.
So unless a radical change of concept happens then the Squeezebox won't ever really have a big appeal in the Mass market. I think they should continue to have the Squeezeboxes as a Enthusiast Product and then come up with some completely dumbed down and locked down separate productline for the Mass Market, just my 2 cents. -- naokaji ------------------------------------------------------------------------ naokaji's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43419 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87951 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
