Exactly, and even if us oldtimers may think that the UE stuff is kinda
sucky, provided the new line generates sufficient profit for Logitech
it's what will keep support for our SBs going.

One thing to remember is that MySB provides a number of rather different
services (providing firmware download, brokering access to online
services, running apps, providing "fallback" server for users without
LMS). Logitech may not pull the plug on all of them simultaneously. I
guess it doesn't take too much effort to keep firmware download going,
and I expect a lot of the web radio stuff doesn't consume many CPU
cycles, on the other hand, driving a bunch of slim devices that are
completely dependent on the server for just about anything is as far as
I understand rather taxing.
