Because quicktime/iTunes is licenced only on the device on which it is installed (remember the EULA which you, like all sane people would, presumably just clicked through). That device does *not* include other non-authorized devices you may stream to. Also Songbird is a "free" project. Apple might feel differently if commercial vendors, such as SD/Logitech, started using their libraries in the same way. But again the crucial point is that Songbird depends on iTuens/quicktime. -- bhaagensen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bhaagensen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7418 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53460 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
