IP3K (firmware in old players) is not open source as far as I know.
SqueezePlay (firmware in new players) is open source.

You are not allowed to redistribute modified or unmodified versions of
any of the firmware or SBS/LMS unless you either:
1. Remove the parts which only is allowed to be distributed by Logitech
directly, it's some drivers, codec, artwork and similar things that has
to be removed.
or
2. Get permission from Logitech to redistribute it

The License.txt files contains more details and the following wiki page
describes a bit regarding SqueezeOS and the licenses used:

(It's not updated with the license change to BSD license though, I
believe Logitech Public Source is licensed as BSD now)
