I've had my SB Radio for about a month now and am thoroughly enjoying it, despite it's many quirks--even on it's worst day it is soooo much better than my old Sangean. Being new to the squeezebox line of products, I'm finding myself more and more puzzled about the two connection options. The radio defaulted to mysqueezebox.com when I first turned it on, so that's what I have used for the most part, but I'm starting to play around with some of the plug-ins, which only work with the server.
As far as I can see, the advantage to mysqueezebox.com is that you don't have to have your PC on. Period. Looks like it's handy for traveling, or for using the radio at work and such, but some features don't work, and communication between the two platforms seems non-existent. On the other hand, the Squeezebox server is much easier to customize, and it gives you access to the music resident on your PC, as well as internet stations. The only disadvantage of the server is that you have to leave your PC running. This is something I do anyway, since my PC is also the server for my weather station. Do I have this right? Is there any reason why one would want to connect via mysqueezbox.com if a running PC is available? Is there any reason why I wouldn't want to connect via the server? Am I missing something?
