No, Squeezecenter can read from UPNP the same way it can read from
itunes. This means it can ingrate music from these sources, not that it

standards and it's surprising that SlimDevices
The problem is Squeezebox is a very thin client. The original generation
of products can't do anything except connect to a server and recieve
information. The newer ones are a little bit fatter, but they'll
probably never support UPNP.
