Hackers, pranksters, whatever. :) I presume Logitech must agree to some strict controls when licensing to such music services. I'm no lawyer nor web designer, but common sense would include some controls over which players (real or not) would have access to such licensed content. Yes, a few forum posts do appear. But now ask yourself two questions: 1. How many hundreds (possibly thousands, I dunno) SB players change hands every year? 2. The most common such forum post are from people who have never contacted the original owner prior to posting, because they are not familiar with how such accounts are handled. All they know is that their recently acquired used player will not register to their account and ask "how do I do this". A few forum posts for many sold players tells me this is not a major issue. ;) -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75544 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezenetwork
