Are these guys a good alternative to squeezebox? I am a simple user of
SB, generally play my own music and access Pandora using my touch and
Radios. Looks like these guys have similar hardware with their Radio and
Tuner?

True, but there's an awful lot of hardware and apps out there using
Reciva so personally I don't feel that's too likely IMO.

IMHO, there can be nothing to compare to the Squeezebox system. The
sound quality, the diverse functionality, the community, the aesthetics
of the devices, the third party capabilitiesand so much more.
I think it's very unfortunate that LOGITECH has chosen to not continue
the Squeezebox line.
FWIW, I've tested Grace and Squeezebox (and a few others) side-by-side,
and while they've done an awfully good job copying the physical look of
the Radio, the sound quality is nowhere near what Squeezebox Radio has
in that form factor. Squeezebox and Sonos are a giant step up in audio
quality

If the software isn't maintained/supported it doesn't matter if it's
installed as firmware on the device, on a local computer or on a cloud
server, either way your system isn't going to work. It's much easier to

What I think is compelling about Grace is their price point of about
$100, but you can buy a getting-rid-of-remaining-stock UE Smart Radio

for the same price.
It seems like old stock of the radios is

Looks like you're right. They were $100 just a few weeks ago somewhere,
now $150 is about the best I see anywhere. Original Squeezebox branded
Radios are all $200 (which

The Now Playing appears as a small panel on the bottom of the screen
(when you are playing something). You can swipe upwards (or just press
it) to make it full screen. I don't think there is a playlist view in
this early preview version (the release notes mention that it isn't
implemented yet).

Yep..I´m in the same situation...neither that I can find the current

The short answer is no.
However, there are software solutions out there now that allow you to

An other good option is getting a Raspberry Pi and running piCorePlayer
or SqueezePlug on it (There may be other installations I dont know of).
This is, as far as I can tell, the cheapest solution (although if you
