I'm still trying to get this all clear.  After doing some research, I
have discovered that LMS is the same or nearly the same thing as the
Squeezebox Server.  I suspect that LMS is open source software, and the
Logitech version may be a or the official version.  It appears that the
last few responses are referring to 2 different approaches to restoring
connection to the LMA.

1) This method uses a modified version of the "LMS", and may otherwise
be compatible with the existing products delivering content to the
Squeezebox Radio.  It may require connecting your server to the web. 
Outstanding questions:

a) Is the modified LMS available as a download, or does it require that
the user hack the software themselves?
b) Has Logitech abandoned this software product, i.e., will there be no
more releases of the official Logitech version of LMS?
c) Is there a way to know if the music server has a sufficient level of
connection to the Internet to deliver content to the Squeezebox Radio
other than to hack/load the new LMS and see if it works?
d) If I'm understanding correctly, this change only involves the music
server.  Is it true that this approach requires no changes be made on
the Squeezebox Radio, and all current functionality would remain the
same (except that LMA would work)?

2) This method involves waiting until Logitech provides the UE upgrade
path to Squeezebox Radio users.  It may require connecting your server
to the web.  Outstanding questions:

a) Will this work with the current, unmodified LMS?  That is, does this
approach require only changing the software on the Squeezebox Radio?
b) Is there a way to know if the music server has a sufficient level of
connection to the Internet to deliver content to the Squeezebox Radio
other than to install UE Radio (word is that this will be an
irreversible upgrade) and see if it works?
