If we're counting the number of players in use, I would guess that the number is shrinking. All of the DIY ARM and PC based players put together by users since Logitech pulled the plug on Squeeebox likely doesn't add up to a single month's worth of worldwide sales of the Touch. More and more older players are either dying or being relegate to a dusty shelf as people move on to more readily available systems that can be expanded and upgraded with new products purchased at retail.
I don't really see this changing. With as easy as it is to put together a DIY system, there's not a lot of financial incentive for anyone to develop and sell a new commercial Squeezebox. There may be a few "higher end" products that trickle out, which will mostly be just fancier packages for the software work being done by others, but the price points won't gain them widespread sales. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102809 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
