I totally agree with that, since streaming services started and the predictions (ok just a prediction) seems that it will exploded in users. 17323 Now this market needs the device to play that. On the phone they have the apps. But at home? The market is very attractive, but you need to make your costumer pay monthly fees to make big money. This image come from this article that apple now start music streaming. So there must be a huge market to gain, as soon as you catch cour costumer to subscribe to your service. If now apples starts to bring out some players and limit their streaming service only to their players (for which they are know for: Airplay, etc), I could see the future of home audio beeing tied to some subscription plan only and stuff like LMS just not be a attractive market anymore...
