Thanks. No, I confess, I'm like the mouse who suggests tying a bell to
the cat in an old fable. I'm willing to suggest action, but not to
undertake it myself. I think you understand how Logitech operates better
than anyone else, so if you are confident that there will be enough
advance warning of a shutdown, I accept that.

I do want to emphasize that I am NOT as concerned about technical issues
as with social and informational aspects. If we should find one morning
that mysqueezebox.com has been shut down and the slimdevices sites are
no longer accessible, it is true that LMS installations will still work
and all services that do not depend on msb.com will continue to work.
But the community of users may be scattered and crucial information may
be lost.

Note that I say these things "may" happen, not that they certainly will
happen.

Thanks for that. I should have thought of the internet archive. That may
be a valuable resource. However, so far my attempts to access any
content there have failed. I'm probably doing something wrong, but I
wonder if it's working for anyone else.

I do not intend to lose any sleep over this, but I hope we are not
setting ourselves up to be blindsided.



LMS (recent) running on Debian X86_64; 5 Squeezelite players (3 in
PiCorePlayer), 3 players connected via Airplay Bridge
1 Squeezebox Radio (upgraded UE Smart Radio) now mostly retired
