You are of course right, if we skip the locally stored music and they
manage to get MySB reliable, the architecture is perfect.
With services like Spotify locally stored music isn't that interesting
for mass market any more. It is interested for audiophiles as they care
about audio quality but most mass market users can't hear the difference
between a 320kbit MP3 and a FLAC file, so Spotify and similar services
are perfect for these. Unfortunately Spotify doesn't work on MySB yet
but I guess it's just a matter of time until Logitech/Spotify sees the
potential.
