Indeed, I have not seen a single person state they are leaving the
forum. And 'panic' is probably strong too, people are disappointed,
bitter with Logitech and concerned about protecting their investment.
That might come over a 'panic' on a forum, but I think people are being
much more reasoned than that. I think I will stick with my SB's, simply
because they is no compelling alternative. Maybe by the time mysb.com
disappears there will be. But I can't see anything with the power,
features and flexibility of the SB for the same kind of money coming
along anytime soon. From now on i believe it will only be either cheap,
smartphone based stuff for Apple etc, or hi-end HiFi gear which I will
likely never afford.

But I can't blame some people for wanting to jump ship sooner rather
than later. Some of us are not rich and selling up now might be sensible
while there is some resale value. Also, setting up and maintaining an SB
based system is fairly technical for most people. The prospect of no
support, bug fixes or hardware replacements etc would be enough to send
the people who struggle packing (of which there ae lots). Some forum
members seem shocked that people would want to get rid straight away, im
going to stock around and see what happens, but I can see why many
would.
