I would avoid the word Squeeze for a number of reasons:
- "Squeezebox" is a registered trademark and can't be used, putting a
space in-between "Squeeze" and "Box" is still pretty close to the
registered trademark.
- "Squeeze" indicates to me that it's always going to be use together
with LMS and mysqueezebox.com and as I tried to indicate earlier in the
thread that might not necessarily be the case on longer terms if this
becomes something bigger than a geek project. Eventually, we need to at
least break loose from mysqueezebox.com if we want it to be something
else than a temporary solution.

I'm really bad at naming, but I would prefer "Open Music Box" (OMB) or
"Open Stream Box" (OSB) before "Open Squeeze Box".
Another boring alternative would be TMB (The Music Box or The Magic
Box).
