Well not exactly the one you link to, which has a 2.8" screen. I bought
one with larger screen, but in principle probably the same besides
screen size I guess:

I cannot comment on Max2Play vs piCorePlayer or other solutions. I have
only tried this. I also only use it as a player, but yes it can work as
both player and LMS server at once if needed. The only catch I see is
that the player cannot connect directly to the mysqueezebox.com
cloudserver because it's not official Logitech hardware. No problem for
me though. Haven't used mysqueezebox.com in years. And LMS plugins which
depends on an account or configuration on mysqueezebox.com also still
works. It's just the direct connection of player that isn't possible.

If you purchase one of these kits you get a free 3 months Max2Play
license included, which is probably needed for the initial setup. Once
you have the right plugins installed (actually comes 99% preconfigured
with kit), you don't need the license anymore.

You probably get more "street credit" for a piCorePlayer solution. I
just purchased the Max2Play kit for convenience :-)
