It's been well over 10 years since the original Squeezebox was introduced and so far other than online music streaming services no one has been come up with a music streaming system for use in one's home that functions any better than the Squeezebox system. Right now it would appear that Roon may evolve into a workable alternative to LMS but not any of those DLNA based systems. Logitech, not knowing quite how far ahead of its time LMS was and still remains, most definitely dropped the ball when they killed the Squeezebox line.
