Don't agree. People can understand client/server models, hey, they even use mobile phones and twitter. Also, DLNA is moving into that direction, too. UPnP always supported it, just the devices don't. The only problems with SC I see are: 1. It's ressource usage (80%) 2. The UI is not well integrates (20%. Wait a moment, didn't I say this before...) #1 may go away with time #2 is hopefully being worked -- 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=63775 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
