Slim/Logitech had a choice: keep Pandora/Rhapsody broken for all, or
check in a firmware fix that would mean the official release is out of
synch with the SqueezeNetwork firmware.

On one hand, Pandora and Rhapsody wouldn't work for anybody.  Fatal
error.  No more Pandora or Rhapsody.

On the other hand, users would be forced to upgrade firmware unless 
they ran the latest nightly.  This is a non-fatal error.  Annoying,
yes, but it still works and it's an easy fix compared to the first
error which wasn't fixable by any user.  You can even hack the config
file to fool the official release into thinking you have the latest
firmware.

So somebody was bound to be upset no matter what decision was made. 
But the decision was easy - one error was fatal, one wasn't but was
annoying.
