As a Linn and SB user: 1) Linn stuff uses UPNP DLNA servers. You can use LMS. I run LMS for my SBs, but I also have a newer server, which is free called Minimserver. This provides some better search trees. I also run the iPAD control software from Linn called Kinsky also free. There are many other third part control point solutions.
2) Gapless no problem, but my server solution doesn't support replaygain. I think JRiver does? 3) No dynamic play listing from my control point. I think some servers can. 4) Linn seem to do software updates about twice a year. The latest added Airplay, allowing iThings to send audio straight to the DS, also Songcast which is available for PC and Mac, this can send Hires up to 192/24 streams to the DS. Internet radio is supported through an external web provider. No integration for MOG, Spotify, etc. - expectation is run their application and send to DS using Songcast. Finally 5 year warranty on hardware. Expensive but good, although not really the answer for a houseful.
