This cannot be done on the slimserver, even via a legal plugin, since that would mean to send the data unencrypted to the sb, which MSFT won't allow. It'd have to be a new native format. Seeing as how each of the music services requires their own application - sure they could stream to the sb that way, but wouldn't you have to switch between slimserver / subscription streaming mode? How's the Roku do this? Maybe you should just wait till someone cracks the encryption used - then a regular plugin could appear out of thin air somewhere absolutely not associated with slimdevices. Since you are paying for the content, this wouldn't hurt anybody.
