Lets face it: every internet Radio needs to be tied to some central internet server to be operational. Noone want's to enter Radio station URLs manually, but wants to have them compiled in nice menus/catalogs. When such a service (either Reciva or MySB.com) goes down, then the devices won't be operational as it's main functionality "easy internet radio station browsing" will be gone. For Squeezeboxes workarounds exist already today (i.e. running your own server or hacking the open source firmware), for other Radios you are bound to the manufacturer that he provides a new firmware, that hopefully then uses a different service. -- bluegaspode Did you know: *'SqueezePlayer' (www.squeezeplayer.com)* will stream all your music to your Android device.
