I have a Squeezebox Receiver tucked away in a cupboard. Its connected to our multiroom amp and we are then able to control it via iPeng from any room in the house. This works fantastically well.
However I was over at my brother-in-laws the other day and although overall I don't like the Speakercraft system he has, I did like the way he can come in and plug in his iPod and control it all via the touch panels etc. In the same way I can dock my iPod when I'm over to listen to some of my music. Obviously you are more than likely to have the same music on your iPod as your iTunes library which Squeeze already has full access to, but I liked the way its well suited for multiple people - say my wife wants to listen to her iPod music for example which is not synced with Squeezecentre. So I wondered if anyone has done any investigation into the idea of a similar dock for Squeezecentre based systems. An Ethernet connected dock to be controlled via the Squeezecentre plugin architecture. These are obviously propitiatory products, but this is the sort of product I'm referring to: http://www.russound.com/ibridge.htm http://www.speakercraft.com/#Products:146:MODE%20Base I guess having the simple audio feed from the iPod could be possible with certain Squeezeboxes (Boom), but what would be really special is if the full metadata and control side could be browsed and controlled across the network via Squeezecentre.
