The SB is a thin client - which in this case it has a basic
functionality to fetch audio but all the display control has to come
from a server.  SB has a proprietary control protocol - called
slimproto.

The main server is Slimserver/SqueezeCenter. Servers such as Itunes or
WMP use different protocol standard (e.g. DAAP and uPNP) and so to use
these you would have to write an interface applications.

Over the years a few users felt that Slimserver/SqueezeCenter has got
too big and have implemented lightweight less functional alternative
servers which implement slimproto. Search the firum and you will find
them.
