Unless Logitech decides owners of the older SliMP3, Squeezebox 1/2/3,
Squeezebox Receiver, Squeezebox Boom and Transporter models aren't
worth supporting any more, it won't happen soon, because the Squeezebox
Server software is doing a lot more than just serving files to the
players.

Even if it's not so true with the newer Radio and Touch models,
Squeezebox devices are basically dumb (or "slim", lightweight client)
devices, missing most the intelligence required to play a music file by
themselves.

Your Radio's not very much cleverer than these older devices, though.
When you press its Play button, it won't open and play the music file
by itself, but will just tell the server it's connected to something
like: "Err, someone pressed my Play button. It's really embarrassing.
Would you be kind enough telling me what to do now?".
