Thanks, Erland. I'm currently running 7.5.2, so I already have support
for a Touch. The Touch would probably be the best bet, since I do have
a small but growing collection of 24-bit music and much of it greater
than 48kHz sampling rate.

I assume LMS will last as long as you want it to (forever if you like)

will just be no further support (updates)
Yes, you can use direct stream URL's in LMS absent MySB.com. The
