I see people, not just kids and teenagers - people in their twenties, early thirties for whom _every_ song they own is on their iPod. So why would any kid want to fart around with a Squeezebox in their bedroom when they can just dial up tunes on their iPods, just like at any other time of day listening when listening through headphones? It's funny that iPod speakers were brought up because it's very much the opposite of the concept of a Squeezebox boombox. iPod speaker systems let you easily take a portable music source and play it through a sound system that's fixed in place. A Squeezebox boombox would let you take a very stationary music source (server & network) and permit you to move the playback system around the house. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36603 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
