Hi all. Like most of you I am very committed to the LMS / Squeezebox eco-system. Planning to keep using it for years to come. My music collections is painstakingly taged and has around 1900 albums in FLAC. Im using a Touch for my main system and a Squeezebox 3 for second room use. LMS 7.8 nightly home server on Debian and long time IPeng user and very happy with it all.
My thoughts and worries on continuing this model are as follows. For the server version, I thing we are safe. 7.8 works perfectly and will keep working for years to come I guess. Its not before it is no longer supported in future Debian versions that we have an issue. For the client devices, if my Touch dies, Im sure I will get me a Community Squeeze / Wandboard device. For integrated speakers/clients, I just bought one of the latest (?) UE Radios and will probably buy another one. I like to have a simple all in one solution and dont see it coming from Logitech and not so simple from third parties. So covered from that angle as well. My concerns are twofold: what if Logitech stops Tomorrow with mysqueezebox.com, will I still have internet radio through the TuneIn app? Im really not sure if this will be affected. Another thing, with this wealth of knowledge on these forums, what if Logitech stops providing this hosted service. Do we have a backup or something. Whats the contingency plan for this? Furthermore, Im looking forward for using the great eco-system we have for many years. All the best in 2014!
