For me, squeeze box and server where always used with my local music in my flat only. So I don't need any integration into social media (don't use them anyway) and for that matter, don't use any on-line service. So if possible, the software should be as flexible as possible e.g. a core module

An additional thought. Maybe I don't think much about integrating social music life simply because I'm not in the habit of doing it. So maybe it would revolutionize my music listening (as the Squeezebox ecosystem has done for me). So if done well, I might come to love it. I'm an old guy, but

You could also think about Ping, the short-lived social music sharing feature in ITunes that Apple introduced two years ago. It never was a success because people just don't feel the need to share their music and it has now been removed.
