on home page links:
I made a few command decisions to round out the home icon set after
moving things around on the top nav bar (back button removed, internet
radio and search moved up to the nav bar)

FWIW, I use almost exclusively these 2 browse links from the home page:
Music Folder, Artist

Genre and Album are completely useless to me, and the others aren't too
important either. Still, it *looks* nice ;)

Since adding New Music, I've used it a few times. I do think that it's
value added (don't know about how you organize things, but I get the
last 100 *albums* added, which is more than enough 'new music)

Someday I hope to use the Browse Artwork, as that will be the killer
feature for the 770/Slimserver/Squeezebox juggernaut. However, the
simple fact that it sorts by Album name and not Artist name makes the
feature nice, in a gee-whiz sorta way, but close to zero utility for
me. Who thinks to look under 'W' for The Beatles - White Album?

As for the favorites link, I can't comment on it because I haven't
tested or even used the feature. Basically, I was trying to round out a
5x2 grid of icons to make it look slick. I'll add testing that
link/feature to the TODO list.

I'm kind of bummed that I haven't been able to give a more consistent
770skin format to the pages served by plugins instead of templates
(favorites, random mix), but that seems to be an architectural hurdle
not simple to overcome.

Also, if anyone has any insight on how to make the output of search
results not look horrible, I'm all ears.

Nice idea on the remote streaming from Starbucks. Very cool. That dang
'ol internet sure is something.

cheers,
