Question: Could a wireless enabled iPod overtake the Squeezebox as a
network music player?
    
- Yes - I want my wireless iPod yesterday!
- No - nothing will pry my Squeezebox from my cold, dead, hands!
- Meh - it could cause some defection but not kill Slim entirely...
------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love my iPods and I love my Squeezeboxes... I wouldn't replace either
real quick.

As regards all the DRM comments as regards the iPod and iTunes I must
be an exceptional user in that I just use my iPod as an MP3 player.  I
make all my MP3 files myself and upload them to my music library (which
is used by my SlimServer and the iPods).

However my iPod can't hold my entire music collection and I don't think
it will any time soon nor do I think I necessarily want it to do so.

But my iPod travels with me.  It's portable.  I don't want to have to
buy one iPod for travelling and several others I leave home so everyone
else can listen to the music library on the stereos around the house.

The quality, power and sound of what comes out of my iPod has never
come close to that coming out of my Squeezeboxes.  I've plugged my iPod
directly in to my stereos, with old-fashioned wires, and it's still much
weaker.

A WiFi iPod?  A great idea and it'll sell quite well.  Is it a
Squeezebox killer?  Don't think so... apples and oranges...
