My music server is a Linux box that feeds my SB3 on another floor, but
when I'm working, which requires Windows XP, I usually stream to foobar
or XMPlay rather than use SoftSqueeze. (My Windows machine has a much
better soundcard than the Linux box.)

XMPlay, Winamp & foobar all support global hotkeys, which let me
control the music even when the media software is buried under a
half-dozen other apps & another program has focus. SoftSqueeze only
supports the traditional Winamp keyboard shortcuts (C for pause, X for
play, etc), & those don't work unless SoftSqueeze has the focus.

If SoftSqueeze supported global hotkeys, I'd use it more often often.
