If I had to make the move tomorrow (i.e., no mysb.com), I'd initially
keep my local music on LMS/Squeezeboxes and set up a small SONOS system
for services. It would require me to push a button on my preamp (to
change sources). And I'd have to use two different controllers (although
at least both controls would be on my iphone and ipad).  This would
work, but be a hassle, mostly for my wife, who has become very
comfortable with doing everything from the SB CONTROLLER.
