I hope this isn't in defense of Softsqueeze being a good desktop
experience, considering it's even more of an 'imitation of hardware
devices'. What would have impressed you?
I don't like SoftSqueeze either as a user experience. I'd like to have
an application with a computer user interface. Fast and sleek end making
good use of the PC's mouse and keyboard. A PC/OS/X/Linux desktop
application and not a web interface or Controller imitation. Something
I'd like to use when I'm sitting behind my PC.

Sure it is, or did you mean Controller?
In Dutch we call this comma-fucking ;).
Anyway, I mainly just came back to re-post this photo Ben put in the
Beta forum- of Tom using his PC (or Mac or whatever) as a controller.
This feature has been asked for many times, IIRC, and would have never
been possible, or just looked pretty silly, using SoftSqueeze:

That's nice, but it's not a PC application. It's a status screen. It
certainly has it's uses as I already wrote in another thread. My point
is and remains that controlling your SD-system from a PC has always been
clunky. And SqueezePlay isn't going to improve that very much. I bet
I'll keep using my browser instead. And perhaps put up a laptop with a
fullscreen SqueezePlay stuck at the Now Playing page when we have a party.

Peter
