>So this basically means that SB3 is designed for my 90 year old grandmother ? Unless she is an audiophile, in which case the Transporter was designed specifically for her. Big knob, bigger screen, bigger sound ;)

All functions should be designed to be as easy to use as possible, and unobtrusive for people that don't need/want those functions. >So maybe the user categories I defined was the wrong ones ? > Maybe. I don't think it would make any difference. >Better suggestions that would fit everyone better would be appreciated, >so if anyone has ideas how to divide the users into different >categories, please post. There are different ways to categorise users. By type (as you have attempted), or by the hardware they use to play music (PC Server, NAS, Squeezebox, Transporter, SBC). Perhaps by age group. Perhaps by their listening environment (lounge or bedroom, loud parties or headphones). If half the user base were grandmothers, and half were spotty teenager geeks, would it really influence the way that geeky functions are designed, so that grandmothers can use them too? I think "Geek" is too strong. Perhaps open it up a bit more to be people who are not afraid to try beta software and plugins; they are gadget lovers. They constantly strive for new features. Enthusiasts. Music Lover and Audiophile are similar to me - both care about listening to music. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
