I suppose I'm in the 50/50 crowd. I use Rhapsody a ton and for that the Squeezenetwork implementation is undoubtedly superior to the UPnP setup: mainly because a) it doesn't require that you go to your PC to start Rhapsody and b) it's able to display all album and artist info -- an area in which the UPnP implementation is still shockingly limited. On the other hand, I find SS invaluable for AlienBBC (NPR!), high-quality local music, the superdatetime plugin (which I use mainly for weather info), powering my SB1s (which can't use SN), the ability to view and edit the "now playing" playlist via the web interface, and the better performance and reliability provided by running from the local server. So I do a lot of switching back and forth. I'm looking forward to Rhapsody direct integration in SS 7. -- azinck3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ azinck3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3967 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36061 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
