The mechanism now being used by SiriusXM has not been openly published.
Presumably they have documented it only for those with suitable contract/NDA in 
place.
The LMS in the sky that is MySqueezeNetwork would be the place to implement it 
since having it in local LMS would expose the mechanisms for others to copy.
Since Logitech is not updating MySqueeze then this results in breakage.

Maybe someone will work out the new protocol or have an alternate intermediate 
service that get make the stream available but until then it is dead for 
Squeezeboxes.
