What good is it if one desires a COMPLETE music system when all you can

complete home stereo audio system there must be a device

little monaural radios. And what

Don't panic just yet. Wait and see, it is very early days for the

I am sure this is *not* going to be the only device from Logitech that

Hi, I only have a SB Radio (I listen to all my music in my home through

1. Can the new Radio scrobble music to last.fm?
2. Can I make playlists with a mix of local music and music from spotify
and save

You may be right of course. If there is a legion of radio-only users out
there who are content with the sound of one small speaker and very litte
bass, then by the same token the UE radio should sell like hot cakes.

Logitech has no clue. What they need to do is focus on making

This I agree with, sadly. Have you seen that odd UE intro video for the
new brand? It's bizarre. There is a company that has absolutely no idea
what they are doing. It's a confusing mashup of products, some

Actually Logitech should have put more effort into licensing to AV
