I'm going to stick my neck out here ! Slimserver is a poor man's
solution to digital music management. The model is wrong and it won't
last. Why can't I rip CDs and play them via Squeezebox with one
application.

I want to use iTunes or Amarok to manage my music and PUSH it to
Squeezebox. I'm fed up of having to add music to a READ ONLY repository
and not being able to tag it and play it directly from my file system in
one go. The PULL paradigm doesn't equate to my listening habits.

If Squeezebox is going to retain a competitve edge it must do provide
something akin to providing a virtual sound driver that masquerades as
a device on windows / linux allowing you to play music over wifi to the
squeezebox. This was it would be client agnostic and not tie you into
using Slimserver. Surely this is real open-source model and the
direction slimserver should be taking.
