Because it is depending on mysqueezebox.com and playing stations &
podcasts  direct from the source - there is a growing issues of https
URLs.  There is a growing number of stations /sources which are moving
over to https ONLY URLs and SB Touch & Radio cannot play https directly
- a local LMS will then be needed to proxy these URLs.  

The local LMS can be a very small system (typically Raspberry Pi, Odroid
etc) with no files stored. With PiCoreplayer these small system are very
easy to setup and require virtually no maintenance. Such a small LMS can
also help play a wider number of station which have moved over to HLS or
a plugin is required for best support.
