When I tried out Volumio recently, I did like it, but I missed the following:
Searching/browsing Album Artists. Browsing by Random Album. Integrated Spotify and local albums. Observing the Compilation tag. Volumio can't be set to ignore a leading article, meaning that a huge number of artists are grouped under 'The'. Being able to send music to devices with the SB Radio form factor. I have two of those, on in the bedroom and one in the kitchen (yes, I have only one HiFi, but there are other places to stream the music to). etc I loved the Volumio web interface and I was impressed by the move towards developing hardware, but I noted the Volumio developers were moving on to a poorer replacement web interface. My brother has set up Volumio on a Raspberry Pi, but has problems with a number of things such as album art. Actually helping him out was interesting because he's on the other side of the world from me! He's happy with it, and I can see (from personal experience) that Volumio is reasonably easy to set up and use, but it's feature set doesn't fit my needs.
