Good luck finding a new job , which i have no doubt that you will find :) and thanks for all the support over the years . I also think it would be possible to move the bandcamp plugin out of "apps menu" (or the apps menu could be made a local menu for future use ) to cut the mysqueezebox.com connection and what about soundcloud and youtube plugin and Triodes and bpa's efforsd BBC i player and classic FM addn on to that . So it's already 3-6 add ons that have potential to work unconnected to mysqueebox.com . Maybe a new tread regarding independent plugins ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97881 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
