LMS is Logitech Media Server. It's software that runs on your computer
or NAS (network attached storage) for serving audio to Squeezeboxes.
The biggest difference from mysb.com is that LMS allows you to play
your own music, provided it is on a hard disk available somewhere on
your home network. It also allows you to listen to internet radio
without mysb.com.

And yes, if you take the Radio and go on vacation, but leave the
computer with LMS behind, you won't have access to the stations you
saved on LMS. (Actually you may be able to connect to the LMS computer
remotely over the internet, but that topic is a little too advanced for
this discussion.)
