On other threads I have seen postings recently of people running all
sorts of LMS versions as far back as 7.4 for a variety of reasons. The
7.4 user was really firm in their desire to never upgrade, since what
they have is working and they'd had a bad experience with 7.5 (agreed
there, it was rather flaky).

I'm not saying you should consider all versions of LMS as far back as
7.4 or earlier, far from it. But just be aware there are people out
there running all sorts of LMS versions. As PasTim says, 7.7 is probably
a good place to stop going backwards in versions. Partly because 7.7 is
what mysqueezebox.com is currently running and the auto updates will
have left many people's LMS running 7.7 (I had to manually update to
7.8.0, it had something I wanted in that the cache databases don't grow
forever).
