Most sensible things seem to pass marketing by. That's why we have new devices that won't do anything correctly unless they can connect to SqueezeNetwork (or whatever marketing have decided it is called this week), rushed out product, a dysfunctional, over-flashy, unusable and irritating web site, no understanding of the value of existing customers or third party developers and no Squeezeboxes in the large stores.
But we do have an expensive flashy web site (oh, did I say that already?). MC -- ModelCitizen Think the third party Squeeze plugins and applets are important? Then 'vote for bug 14194' (http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14194) so more can be made.
