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?).

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.
