2018-09-22 Thread bigjules
I bought my first slim devices squeezebox a long time ago - back in 2006 - before music streaming over the internet was really a thing. It was revolutionary. I ripped all my cds, and listened to music that I hadn't heard for ages. Over the years, my wife and I and my 4 kids have used it

(hopefully) its not because I'm clueless. And like you, I am not saying I dont like the product. I use my SB3 every day, both for internet radio and listening to my music collection. I still think it is the most useful thing I've bought in the last 10 years. -- bigjules
