The primary benefit to Logitech as I see it would be more people using
Squeezecenter and possibly more 3rd party development on server
optimization. It's also a "gateway drug" for people to get an idea of
what the clients are capable of.

The user benefits would be people who have Slim/Squeeze/whatever
players and other generic UPnP players wouldn't have to deal with
multiple servers with varying comprehension of tags/covers and such.

UPnP AV/DLNA is basically a browsing protocol, but Twonky and others
have shown by interfacing it to a database instead of a simple
directory structure it can actually be quite flexible. In the long run
I like to see database servers/protocols over simple file servers.

Anyway one more vote for DLNA and DAAP too. Firefly supports both.
