Squeezebox/LMS is *not* for non-techies, I know, I tried to set up a
system for my sister (I even bought her a Squeezebox Touch), no go, she
and her partner couldn't get their heads round it. They finished up with
a Bose speaker in every room and a Spotify account, controlled from
iPads/phones.

To demonstrate what the online music experience is like, I would suggest
an Amazon Echo Dot, and a Spotify account. They'll be amazed!

P.S. I got the Touch back. :)
