It depends. If the net benefit of rebranding iPeng as the "Logitech Remote App" for Squeezebox, advertising it and giving it away on the Apple store generates an extra 5000 unit sales per year it would be far better than hoping that 3rd party development generates these types of additional sales. -- jmpage2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jmpage2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72308 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
