I also successfully updated the FW of my spare Touch and Radio *without*
registering them to mysb.com. On the Touch the 'left swipe' didn't work
to abort registration during the initial setup, but - as gharris999
mentioned - disconnecting the WAN line from the broadband modem finally

I've been a Squeezebox user and advocate almost since the beginning.
About the only product I didn't own was the original SLIMP3. I have a
dozen devices and was just talking about streaming home solutions with
an acquaintance the other day and showing off my SB solution where I
could control my

I see the choose player option. But i don't care about using it as a

This is Dudley from the Logitech UE product team..

Touch is the only player which can play 192k streams and needs 7.8 if
its wav. If the requirement is to stream from another source on the
local lan then I don't see why this will be any different from streaming
from the LMS - the client code in squeezeplay is the same.

Excellent points and I totally agree. Because of the large numbers of
consumers who have invested large amounts of money in these excellent
LOGITECH products with expectations of longevity and functionality, I do
not think LOGITECH would want the publicity from disgruntled

The number of squeezebox customers of logitech is so very tiny compared
to their total customer base that I doubt Logitech cares about them one

You're probably right,Gary. I definitely respect your opinion. The 2
year and then throw it away part is hard for me to understand. It's
true,IMO, that hardware becomes outdated in a short time (2 years), but
the hardware is still functional for an indefinite period of time. I

Since all you really need/want is a player on your Win8 box have you
tried using SoftSqueeze rather than SqueezePlay? SoftSqueeze even has a
headless mode so that you can run it with no UI at all. Yes, you can
control it from the WebUI or your Android.
Hmm , what firewall and intivirus you migth have to alter settings in
both and sorry to say disabling firewalls does not *really* disable them
in many cases ( unistall is what works ).
