I have 5 SB's and I love them and the whole concept of slimserver and
everything it has done to my music listening habbits.
BUT.. the often flaky synchronization of Slimserver is sometimes
frustrating especially from the "whole house audio" standpoint.

I used to follow the software road map in hopes that the finite clock
thing would pan out but now it isn't on the road map anymore. 

I would like to be able to sync players and turn them on and off at
will without restarting songs or otherwise disrupting the current
music listening experience.

I would like to play 70 minute files without them drifting off sync 
after 15 minutes.

I notice that live internet streams behave better than pre recorded
streams or files.  Could slimserver be tricked into treating all music
like live streams?

Please don't take this as a rant.  I love my squeezebox and talk them
up to anyone who will listen but I would like to know if this is a
realistic expectation or not.

Do others also feel that the sync function needs work bad? 

I realize the logitec thing probably derailed some of the development
towards ease of use and stability for the masses and I understand
that.
Just wondering if perfecting synchronization just got put on the back
burner or written off altogether.

am I beating a dead horse?

A concerned citizen.
