A bit off topic, but I just have to respond. TinySC will NEVER be like
or what SBS is on a Server. Its not even meant to be. Its a feature to
allow one to use a local library without a Server with the knowledge
that features such as plugins are not available, speed and response are
reduced, and again that it is NOT SBS.

People are not complaining because its not supposed to be SBS (and the
few that are just still don't get it). TinySC does what it was meant to
do which is NOT a full substitute SBS running on a PC or Server. The way
I think about TinySC is that it lets me use a Squeezebox where I
couldn't before and that it can be a way for new users to get started.
The new user has no over expectations of TinySC because they haven't
used SBS before.

Back on topic, I think the TAS and SF reviews will focus on the Touch
as a way to get started with digital file listening but will steer
clear that it could ever be imagined as a replacement for a Linn or
McIntosh solution.
