i say "force" b/c SD offers no alternative to SS if you don't like SS, (but do like SB). again, i am not saying SS shouldn't exist... but given all its well documented flaws, problems, bugginess, bloatware characteristics, whouldn't it be nice for people who want to use other software to be able to do so? wouldn't the company that wants to sell the hardware to make their money want those people to be able to do so? would that not increase their potential market? turning around and telling me that if i want it, i have to become a programmer is illogical and frankly immature. i'm not going to do that. telling me i should just get something else entirely ought to send a red flag to logitech. but i'll bet you logitech eventually gets the memo, and SS will eventually not be the ONLY way, [ie forced way] to power a SB. why does my desire to have a device driver alternative drive some of you so crazy? it makes no sense. -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 w/SS 6.5.1 (beta!?) - Win XP Pro SP2 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31324 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
