For me the hassle of updating LMS via SSOTS was the main reason I switched to using a Pi3 as a server. Oh, and the fact that periodically the QNAP system updates would break LMS. And the fact that SSOTS is no longer maintained (and there was that Bash vulnerability). Also, using the Pi means that I can use Spotty. The versatility of the Squeezebox system continues to impress. At home I have a Touch, two Radios and two Raspberry Pi players streamed from LMS running on a Raspberry Pi3 with the music library on a QNAP NAS. In my office I have LMS running on a Western Digital WiFi enabled Passport 2Tb drive, with a Raspberry Pi as a player. All my Raspberry Pi devices are using piCorePlayer, and all work very well.
