I also think that if I'd only need one player where the main Hifi is, I
would choose whatever there is available on the market (maybe even DLNA
stuff).

But in the meantime I own three Squeezebox Radios (Bedroom, Kitchen,
Bathroom) and I couldn't replace them with Apple stuff anymore,
because: well one needs knobs on the devices if there are in different
Rooms. (For the same reason also Sonos lacks a lot for me).
Also the Boom in the Kids Room is well used to turn on some music when
he goes to bed - and I'm very happy, that I don't have to fiddle with
some remote to do so (which would just lead to fights over the
phone/tablet in the evening). (Sometimes I even enjoy just to put on
some fairy tale in the morning remotely, to get 30min more sleep ;) -
that wouldn't be possible with any device, that cannot turn on its own
boxes).

So in the end it all boils down to your environment, and for me
Squeezeboxes big advantage over other systems is still their very good
multiroom capability but also their form factor.
