this doesn't seem to do much - anyone else had any luck?

Yes.  You probably need to create an account and add it into SqueezeNetwork

I tried it in SC 7.3 this morning.  The integration works quite nicely.

However, I was disappointed with the Deezer service itself.  There's not a wide 
range of choice in the provided radio stations.  I searched for "Pink Floyd" 
and played the smart radio.  The first track played was Pink Floyd, but soon 
after it jumped to Guns'N'Roses!  A few tracks later it played another G'N'R 
song, and then again after that.

I looked at the related artists.  This revealed a small list of 10 artists - 
not a massive set of similar artists; missing quite a few obvious choices I'd 
expect to see.

However, I searched for other artists, and got 10 similar artists back each 
time, so perhaps this is a limit imposed via the SC plugin or the Deezer API?  
Searching again for the same artist returned the same 10 hits.

I've had much better experience with Last.fm.

Sorry, yes "pointless" was harsh actually, i wish i had not used that
word in hindsight - it's not pointless and i am sure there will be
existing Deezer users who will enjoy this, it will also introduce
people to the Deezer service (i just signed up). But basically there is
nothing to tempt me from Last.FM, which is much better.

Sorry, should have made my point more clearly - indeed I was implicitly
referring to the Napster service available to Sonos users. Tried to
convince a couple of friends to get a slimdevices product, they ended
up buying a Sonos. Pity, of course - we could have shared libraries
over the net (not sure Sonos supports this).

Thats a very good question, i have just been playing with Deezer site
and it offers a lot more - in fact it's pretty much a cut down free
version of Rhapsody/Napster. Are we going to see full functionality
with the Squeezebox, or are there some kind of restrictions with the
API or due to licensing etc?

Don't get me wrong, i am very excited to see new services being
supported, but unless we have full artist/album streaming it's kind of
pointless.

the issue is always the same. 

I would like to have a choice of artist AND album/track, and it seems
deezer does not offer that, but only a streaming feature, like Last.fm
or Pandora.

The interesting thing is, that Deezer allows one to browse and play the
library by artist, album and track if you access it from the web. Why
has this not been implemented in Squeezecenter? I really would like to
have a european version of Rhapsody - we have all been clamouring for
this for a very long time, and many have jumped the gun and moved to
the sonos platform.

Agree fully.  Although slightly OT, how many companies these days still
support the first product they released *years* ago (SliMP3).  And not
many companies offer products that are continuously upgraded and
enhanced via firmware either - most see this as an opportunity to force
the customer to buy a new product.

I just got that email too.  It wasn't clear at all.

I'm guessing that it's only available through SqueezeNetwork, which the mail, 
or web page it references mentions at all.  You have to set up a deezer account 
(guess the url is www.deezer.com), then log into SN and add that account.  You 
can then play music via a squeezebox when connected to SN.

I've updated to the latest SC v7.3, and SC doesn't display Deezer in Music 
Services.
