Shutdown/Hibernate/Suspend to mysqueezebox.com "pushes" your player
onto mysqueezebox.com just before the shutdown/hibernation/suspend
happens.  The shutdown/hibernation/suspend itself isn't any different. 
It gives your player a "home" on mysqueezebox.com while the local server
is asleep.  The two ways in which this feature appeals to most people
are 1). with older IP3K players, the clock can continue to display, and
2). with the SBTouch, having it connected to mysqueezebox.com helps to
prevent spurious WOL wake-ups of the local server.

it's running tinysc.  Then, in the "Alternate server for players"
drop-down list on the SrvrPowerCtrl settings page "Groovy Touch (SD
Card)" will show up as an available alternate server.  If you select
that as the alt server, then all the SrvrPowerCtrl menu choices switch
from "Hibernate to mysqueezebox.com" to "Hibernate to Groovy Touch (SD
Card)", etc. and those become the choices for the available actions for
on-idle, eod, etc.

Again, the rationale for this is the same as in the case above.  Except
that this will work for the same purposes even if you don't have an
internet connection, or if you just prefer to not use up bandwidth.
