I've been in the industry long enough to know that people are generally idiots who do not want to know details, all they care about is simple answers and are thus easily swayed by marketing.
Defining exactly what is meant by "what they want" is also a trick. There is a simple "I want to play music", and then there is the "I want a dlna server to play music". One leaves the implementation details as a black box, the other a specific method to do it. You rely on simple then someone makes choices for you, usually in favor of proffit and control by them alone without regard how detrimental it is for you. On Apr 4, 2012 10:55 AM, "Anthony Q.
