Typical response from this community. Everybody's happy as long as we, the purchasers and users of the product, declaim that open source is the greatest, slim devices is the greatest, etc., but apparently "negative" comments, like saying that library rescans are molasses-slow resource hogs, or that Squeezebox should be able to select a host server as easily as SoftSqueeze, are not welcome. Well, there's a reason I'm still using my Squeezebox1, and it's not lack of money. It's that I haven't seen any improvements that matter to ME since SB1 and slimserver 5.4. Visualizations? Neat-o. A cool new box that won't fit in my a/v rack? Neat-o. So? It's not making me want to upgrade. A lot of people's needs have obviously been addressed in SB2 and SB3. But not mine. Does that make me Mr Radical Ego? Whatever. I've been waiting two subsequent generations now for a product that's worth the upgrade. Still waiting. This community has a bad habit of jumping on anyone who expresses displeasure with the product, unless it's accompanied by sufficient bowing and scraping. I hope that changes. "Complainers" should be listened to, whether you like what's said, whether you don't agree with how it's said. If Slim wants to break out of its niche-market status, and start selling some major product, they should listen. -- Mister-E ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mister-E's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1680 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18262 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
