Mainly because it offers all we need as a player only solution with a
usb dac.  Its got a real usb implementation which is much better than
the Pi and also has more cpu power.   It can run squeezelite and
jivelite fine on its single core (which can be a stress for a Pi). 
Price is also not too bad.  It does not have on board wifi, but arch
supports usb wifi adaptors and the one I have works out of the box. I
think the dual core version with msata is likely to be a viable server
with a flash card in the msata port.  The other advantage is that
there's a more up to date linux kernel for it than the Wandboard which
includes patches to support spdif bitrates etc so there is no need for
the SoA custom kernel.
