I have not looked at the source code, and I apologize to those that
have. But we do know that the radio functions well with a PC server so
it "should" just be a matter of applying that code to the MySB.com
servers.  I just think more should/could have been accomplished on this
front in the 6+ months I've owned the radio.  With the nightly builds,
theres a sense that all development manpower is being applied to SBS
which most of you agree functions well while no one seems to be looking
at MySB.com.

I will say that the ONLY reason I added my voice to this thread is the
personal frustration that boils up when I see posts like "My radio
works perfect"...  This is the wrong message for Logitech to be
receiving.  It leaves out the 2nd half of the story, which is "It only
works perfect when you run it with a PC server."   No one said that, so
I had to.

The thread seems to be more of a pile-on against this oxdeadbeef guy
who apparently has a history of irritating you folks, so I probably
should have just kept my nose out of it.

Which I've done (see post #32).  Still waiting for the fix.  I got the
same results when I posted in the "official" forum, which is, no
results, no response, no acknowledgement.  To those that say over and
over that Logitech does not read these forums, that may be their
"policy," but we all know it's not true.  I've seen dozens of posts by
the developers here, often weekly.  We know they DO read & respond to
posts here, specifically bug reports.  So please, STOP repeating this
false statement.

I don't know if it has a battery powered option (don't care) but owners
of the Grace Innovator seem to be pretty happy.  The larger selection of
MySB.com apps and the color display over Grace's ugly blue LED display
is all that swayed my decision to go with SB instead.  So it was a
trade-off - More bugs for more functionality.

There's the color display that often shows a black & white antenna
image instead of the station's color logo, shuffle play that only works
if you jump through hoops, menu items that mysteriously disappear,
MySB.com app items that you mark as "Don't show" which do (& vice
versa), etc...  You almost need to be an IT tech to diagnose &
workaround some of the issues which granted, goes with the territory of
being a wireless device.  I think a pile of user issues would have been
prevented if it had only been fitted with a connector for an optional
external antenna.  The side of your bed doesn't always have the most
optimal signal.
