It did for me. Once I bought my first SB3 I ditched the CD jukebox. Now, on those rare occasions when I need to listen to a CD I just pop it into the DVD-player. It can handle basics like that quite well. That's my fear if Logitech ever tried to go to the combined audio/video route. Sure, they could make a device that handles all the basics of audio streaming well while adding video capability, but could they give me the customizable experience to which I've grown accustomed, without creating such an over-complicated mess that it doesn't work well? My guess is they'd have to cut out the features (3rd party plugins) that make their product special. Better to be a niche product, and earn a nice margin on it, then go mass-market and become just another commodity player. -- GeeJay ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GeeJay's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11388 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
