No problem if it works across the whole Squeezebox line, and sync is
necessary for me.
And I always run LMS so the need for a server is not an issue for me.
But, as TuneIn radio is the internet radio player for the SBoxes today,
and is available for some other platforms with this functionality, I
thought maybe they (tunein) could be talked into making a LMS compatible
version. Maybe that is a lot of work for them and the SBox line is a
dead market with no expected revenues.
If someone comes up with this as a plugin I'm all for it.
