Another big thumbs up. I've been loving me some SB3 for quite a while and even my wife thinks it cool (and she makes the unabomber look like Steve Jobs...) They should bring back the MP3 is not a crime* sticker though... *Unless the bitrate is 192kbs -- Dante Cubit

In addition to the great music server aspects of hearing all the tunes I own through SB3's, the SqueezeNetwork capabilities have added a whole new dimension to radio listening in my home, where FM reception (not to mention the content quality of commercial radio stations) is poor. -- TiredLegs

Just a quick note of appreciation to Sean and his team for the fantastic work they have done with the Squeezebox and Transporter. I own 3 SB3's and a Transporter and since acquiring my first SB3 have rediscovered my love for music. Before the SB3 I always had a reason not to listen: not enough

Thanks for this post. I was thinking of posting something similar. Thank you, everyone, for such a great product which has also brought me back to my music! -- Rick B. Rick B.'s Profile:

I agree, the Squeezebox offers a fundamental lifestyle change. A fantastic product. My family loves it. Now we want more; touch screen control panel; Moose type interface integrated into the system; wireless speakers etc. etc. -- Mongo

Agree completely. Brilliant piece of kit. Glad I chose it over the Sonos. Decision took a long time and it WAS a tough one. The 17 people at the party here over the weekend are going for SB3 now too. Another party this weekend - MUUUCH BIGGER. -- Empgamer

As I've said in other threads, i've been an avid follower of SD since I first read about them on Slashdot back in 2001. I love my two SB3s and would gladly expand my collection if only i had somewhere to put them (1 bedroom apartment at the moment). I have a SliMP3 in a box waiting to find a

Have to agree. Now I want to listen to music rather than just watch the box. The quality is superb and so easy to find and navigate. Plus the wealth of Plugins like Album review and Biography add another layer. Thanks guys for allowing me to re-discover music -- Paul_B Paul

I agree as well, thanks. The SB has changed my life. No more CD's all over the house. I now buy CD's with reckless abandon and I also download FLACs from DimeADozen and Zappateers. Any music that I didn't know how to store (like out of print LP's that I recorded to CD) are now neatly organized on

I need to second all of the above comments. It's a revelation. Since getting the SB2 and the SB3, I've been listening to stuff that I'd long forgotten about. RandomPlay is a godsend! AlienBBC yes! Jive? Adorable! Visitors love it, Her Indoors loves it, my parents didn't know quite what to make
