Um, in iPeng you also just need to tap the track, Actually back in the days when this was not the default setting iPeng went to great length to override it because it was always supposed to work like this :) --- learn more about iPeng, the iPhone and iPad remote for the Squeezebox and

Well I was a bit miffed when last December LastFM insisted on a monthly subscription for their streaming service and guessed then that it was not long for the world. I hate internet subscriptions. No surprises then when they send me a note confirming they are terminating the music streaming
