Let me see if I can explain myself a bit better.  
I understand that music can be served up from the Slimserver in two
ways:
1.  A Squeezebox can log in and pull music over.
2.  The Slimserver can be controlled directly to allow it to "push"
music.

As far as I can tell the "pushed" music can be directed at a particular
Squeezebox or it can be read as a stream by any device that can
recognize it (including iTunes on a Mac or PC).

Assuming that 1 and 2 are distinct processes (pushing vs pulling
files), then am I correct in my understanding that the Squeezebox will
be "pulling" FLAC files and decoding them locally?

Additionally, if I stream music, will that automatically be converted
to MP3?  

My main concern is that the Squeezebox will also receive MP3 files,
which I do not want.  What I like about the Squeezebox is its ability
to decode FLAC locally, allowing me to play uncompressed files that
have not lost any information.

If I am still not making sense, please let me know.
I appreciate your help.
Best,
Dan
