I agree but I think that what most of what we do here does not work for
consumers. I like LMS because of these 2 faces: it is possible to tinker
with it but it could now be really mainstream with pre-made devices. I
think this is unfortunate that Logitech, with their presence on that
market does not bring it back through such a set of speakers, 'radios'
and boxes (receiver+dac).



LMS 7.7.2 - 5 radio, 3 Boom, 4 Duet, 1 Touch, 1 SB2. Sonos 2xPLAY:1,
PLAY:3, PLAY:5, Marantz NR1603, JBL OnBeat, XBMC, Foobar2000, XBoxOne
(sort of)
