Which gets me wondering: If the Squeezebox ever does get the ability to support DRM, how would it happen? It can't be through SqueezeNetwork, obviously, because the DRMed stuff isn't there; and just as obviously, it can't be through the open source part of SlimServer. So would Slim put out closed-source plugins for the DRM-streaming part of SlimServer? Put out an entirely closed-source version of Squeezebox just for DRM purposes (I assume Slim owns all the copyrights on SlimServer, so can release non-open-source versions if they ever feel like it)? Enable the Squeezebox to operate with non-SlimServer servers like WMC? -- mkozlows ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mkozlows's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20941 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
