Slight bump...for an update To date, I have yet to get the Logitech app to play music. Can't figure out why. So far, I'm loving the Orange Squeeze app. My first impressions are that it might just be the best GUI for music playback yet. I'm certainly thinking it's the best $4 I've ever spent

Just grabbed a copy. For $3-4 definitely worth it, even to try. Also, I have to say that this is a realistic pricing model for this kind of app/expansion, unlike some developers charging $20 just for a plugin. (As my purchasing demonstrates!) :)
