Re: [slim] Apple to create competitor to Pandora
They sell consumers hardware, tightly controlling what's available. They sell consumers software, and censor what software is available, while taking a cut from third-party developer profits. They sell video and e-books and censor what content is available, while taking a cut from content creator's profits. Now they are trying to sell streaming music, while censoring what content is available and taking a cut of the profits. Meanwhile they are the world's largest corporation by market capitalization and post record-setting earnings quarter after quarter. At what point do consumers wake up and realize they are selling their souls to Apple? I'm quite content with paying Microsoft for an operating system and then choosing who to buy my hardware from, who to buy my software from, whatever music stores I like, my own music server (Squeezebox), etc. Agent Smith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29954 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96344 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] How long have your SB's lasted?
I bought my first SB3 Classic in August of 2007 (it says SlimDevices on the front), then picked up 2 Logitech SB3 Classics in 2008, and last week bought 2 touches from Amazon before they sold out. The classics work great, but I have noticed that the screen on my oldest classic is starting to dim after 5 years of being on 24 hours a day. I can still read the display but it is nowhere near as bright as one that I don't always have plugged in. How long have you had your Squeezeboxes for? How long do you reckon they'll last before a chip burns up or it just stops powering on for no apparent reason? I'm hoping 10 years.

Re: [slim] Where did Playlist go?
http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=17511 This issue was reported in August but still shows as unassigned. The more people that vote for a fix the faster Logitech will get to it. Please reply there and let Logitech Support know this is affecting you. -- Agent Smith Agent Smith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29954 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92189 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
