Synology is the problem, not Arm7. I was of the same mind as you regarding yet another device, that was one of the attractions of the NAS as it could do it all. But there is no sign of Synology fixing it, so the cheapest and quickest option was to try the Raspberry Pi if I wanted to alleviate my BBC withdrawal symptoms!
If you follow the instructions and use Squeezeplug / Max2play it is the work of about 30 minutes to put the Pi in a case, connect it up and install the software. If you are clever you can even copy over all your settings and plugins from your Synology installation (the locations of the files are on the last tab of the LMS settings browser page). You can use WinSCP for that. The Max2play bit is a web based user interface for Squeezeplug and is very simple, so if you can manage LMS and the Synology configuration pages you can easily manage Squeezeplug with Max2play.
