Could be. Either way, Logitech can have it the way they want, an UE
related section here will only

I don't think we are likely to change that by turning our back on the
users who hop on the UE train now, simply because

Unless they fork off a sub-forum for the Radio and Media Player, it'll
turn into a real jumble of posts about headphones, etc.

wouldn't hurt. Have no idea who can add a forum.
p.s. We don't have a forum here for (1) Transporter, (2) SB3 (or SB1 or
SB2 for that matter)
I'm glad someone's brought this up.
IMO, we should refuse to have anything to do with the UE stuff on the
Squeezebox forum. Let's see how well Logitech cope with supporting their
users without additional resources from the community. Maybe just for a

We've always had official forums at Logitech and more community-oriented

Logitech's new approach to the technology a chance.

Who said anything about going to war? This is more like industrial

Maybe sad, maybe not. I can afford all my toys because some organization

Board and shareholders.

Exactly, and it's probably more likely that they will keep it on longer
