I have a long memory :-)

"We need to add support for WMA plays-for-sure DRM, which is on the
schedule however getting 7.0 out the door is the first priority"

The following is pure speculation on my part:
I suspect there might be a technical issue with the SB3
hardware that will prevent it from supporting WMA PlaysForSure.

The current firmware already utilizes the SB3 memory to an extent that
leaves little room for enhancements.

See for example
http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=9053#c1

which mentions the need to compress the firmware.

They might find a way to support it within the confines of the current
hardware, or they might introduce new hardware that essentially would
be Squeezebox 4.
Either way I'm sure they are aware of Sonos support for Napster, just
as I'm sure they are careful not to hurt SB3 sales.
