But it still works quite well.
MusicIP works just fine. Sugarcube is a nice plugin. I haven't used any of Erland's plugins other than Trackstat and Licence Manager but I'm sure they are all good. My view is the ecosystem is excellent for me. It would be perfectly fine without the extras but the plugins make it wonderful and probably keep the size of the user base up. "If The Sun Refused to Shine, I would still be loving you"... in other words if Logitech dropped it the server and hardware will continue to do the job and there is no rush for me to change. I have been a Slimdevices customer for a long time and I have no reason to wish to change. As for video I am happy to use different hardware for that. I don't want a TV on while using music. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fairyliquidizer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3678 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95603 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
