Is having your own music collection now a thing of the past? Do the majority of Squeezebox users what their music collection in "the cloud"? Do the majority of Squeezebox users only listen to radio? Do they care about the fidelity of the sound?
Big decisions. Could have huge ramifications for Squeezebox at it's users. I doubt that the status quo will remain. If this is true then be prepared for major changes and not necessarily good ones. I've yet to see positive outcomes when businesses reinvent a line to make it more profitable. As already highlighted, standards will drop straight away. >From a business point of view the current hardware is too expensive for mass adoption so there will be a push to produce cheaper units with less quality. If they retain the high quality gear while doing this then not a problem but only time will tell. If they concentrate on internet sources at the expense of local content then I'm sure a large number of users will be annoyed and will rethink their use of Squeezebox. Maybe I'm in the minority on this one or am I just showing my age? Interesting times. Of course until we get more facts this is all supposition. -- Gingernut63 Gingernut63 MonkeySqueeze - Squeezing music into your life! http://twitter.com/#!/MonkeySqueeze1 MonkeySqueeze Support: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=59515 MonkeySqueeze Development: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=59907 Squeezebox Boom - SqueezePlay - Squeeze Player - MediaMonkey - MonkeyTunes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gingernut63's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=48490 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91532 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
