I have already told my wife that if we ever win the lottery that I would
want to buy the Squeezebox name and rights from Logitech so I would have
something to do with my time.  With the power of the tiniest computers -
like the Raspberry Pi - now sufficient to power the server and players
it seems that it should be possible to streamline the Squeezebox
experience to run on just about anything.  I even wonder if it would be
possible to deploy Squeezebox as a service similar to Spotify Connect or
Google Cast.  LG and Sony just recently announced their new speakers and
receivers would have Google Cast built in so I imagine if Logitech had
been smart they could have licensed the Squeezebox server/player to
easily be incorporated directly into receivers, speakers etc.  Of course
I don't have a technical background so I could be completely off base
but if I were in charge that is what I would have tried to do before
flushing this great system down the toilet.
