That's good, and it's nice to hear that there's some european servers coming 
too.  My previous experience of SN was that it was slow to connect, and felt 
slow to navigate through the menus.

Will SqueezeCenter require some manual configuration, or will it determine the 
best SN server location to connect to somehow?

>Why?  They used to have to use a (slow) Live365 web service in the US.
I was assuming that the old plugin kept a local list of preset live365 
stations, but I see what you mean - it would have needed to visit the live365 
site to check the presets are up to date.

Good to hear.  I was a bit worried that if SN was abandoned by Logitech, or 
transatlantic links went down, or there was a more mainstream uptake of SN, 
that the radio services would become unuseable.

Still, nothing to stop someone writing a third-party plugin to replace the 
functionality in that case.
