I've been in the market for a long time for a new alarm clock. The radio stations I tend to listen to are moving more towards the Internet rather than direct broadcast. I'd like to buy a Squeezebox Radio, but it just seems fundamentally broken/flawed for what I want. In order of feature

Somehow that player must be deleted from it's previous MySB account. You can find the previous owners email address on the SB3 in Settings Information MySqueezeBox.com, the SB3 must be connected to MySB.com to show this info. Another option is to email support with the player model and MAC
