Regular player preferences are keyed by MAC, because as you rightly
point out, IPs can change quite frequently. Where the MAC is
unavailable (because it's on a routed network) I guess it has no choice but to use IP. I'm not really sure how you'd handle identifying a player
when the MAC is unknown and the IP is dynamic.
Actually, the Squeezebox sends its MAC address as a unique identifier in band on the Slimproto connection and doesn't rely on the MAC address on the packets to identify the player.
