Hm. Last.fm is not about hosting new music, which MySpace is. And YouTube. They would be needed from a playback perspective. MySpace is still (although losing a bit of weight) pretty big as a marketing tool for new bands, this would be a big win for SB if it doesn't want to grow into an old image. Facebook and Twitter may not do a lot of music on their platforms but they are used to communicate a lot of links. What would be cool would be an easy way to import these links while also being able to play the stuff. THIS is the real challenge: being able to play some stuff that's being presented through a link or a flash plugin, requires some intelligence on the client side. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote, at penguinlovesmusic.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72512 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
