People keep mention DLNA...
Could someone let me know which DLNA based system that's more user
friendly and more intuitive than a Squeezebox for music listening ?
Feels like I've missed something because all DLNA based system I've
tried has been more hostile and more buggy than the experience I have
from Squeezeboxes.
DLNA is great for video where you rarely browse or navigate, you just
select what to play and watch it for 1-2 hours, but for music I can't
see its big potential because browsing, searching is too big part of
the usage scenario when listening to music.
It might sound good that you can mix devices from different
manufacturers as you like, but is there anyone that really has got this
to work reliably ?
All my experience tells me that often there are incompatibility issues
between the hardware/software from different DLNA manufacturers, and
this causes a lot more issues than the initial setup issues some people
have with Squeezebox solutions.
