The main difference between Sonos and Squeezebox is that the Squeezebox needs a server running. The Sonos can get by with just a networked disk, like the timecapsule (if I understand it correctly). Some networked disks (NAS) are able to run the Squeezebox server software, but the time capsule probably isn't, Apple being Apple. You can run the Squeezebox server software on any MAC, Windows or Linux PC. But it has to be on when you play music unless you're content with using Squeeze Network.
