Erland, you're right of course, closed source isn't a requirement - I think I was thinking in terms of something that is limited in terms of features and extensions - as you say, something where new features aren't added every week. In my mind, that's more compatible with a closed source environment, but I'm hardly an expert on the various options. ;-) And lots of people do and have worked their way up the learning curve of the current software. I'm about as far from a "geek" as you can get - but I love the way it's helped me rediscover and manage my music and so for me, it's been more than worth it. -- Siduhe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Siduhe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=723 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38090 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
