Absolutely agree ... classical corporate story though - and very sad indeed, given the absolute brilliance of the architecture, the potential it has embedded and the sheer joy that the vast majority of the very substantial numbers of users gain from it all. The only real analogy that I can come up with would have been Microsoift giving up on the first iterations of Excel because it was so clunky compared with the then much used and appreciated Lotus or Supercalc. Since Microsoft was driven by a passionate CEO who understood the product line inside out at the time, they perservered - shame that Logitech has never really had the same quality Exeec Management. They are clearly just run of the mill US execs with little or no understanding of their own product lines. Furthermore, they are clearly are subject to - rather than controlling - their marketing wonks, internal politics and limiting, self-driven, individuals who would sacrifice anything rather than see another man's good idea succeed. My new aim in life is to avoid the whole mob like the plague - I will however be faithful to the Squeezebox line, because it simply works and delivers precisely what I need. No credit to Logitech for that, however - all the credit must go to the legion of developers who used their passion & expertise regardless of the diminishing returns available for them personally ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sherington's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2587 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96188 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
