While it's clear why all of this is out-of-bounds for Logitech; I think
that concluding that this support violates a number of laws (for US
anyway) is overstepping given that Apple has not challenged it and laws
regarding this stuff are very complicated (e.g. DCMA - note that iPhone
jailbreaking was explicitly added as an exception. Different than this
case, yes, but the point is that the whole legal area is far from
clear).

Anyway, Logitech obviously licenses Apple stuff legitimately and
wouldn't have interest in gray areas. But there's no reason to make
legal assumptions on third-party choices that aren't being legally
challenged (or to discourage such third-party development based on
hypotheticals).

Yes, that looks pretty close.  It gets a good review, so I need to find

Up to a point I agree with you. Over the years my wife and I have
downsized (on purpose) to smaller and smaller houses. My current house
is 1/4 the size of our home 25 year ago. And I have, not exactly sure,
10,000 or so CDs. Going to jewel cases saved me a TON of space. And I
can still walk into a room, open a cabinet drawer and access the CDs
with full inserts quickly. (And notice I would never get rid of the
CDs, even if I hope to never NEED to see them again).

But you are aware that strictly speaking in some countries that support

it uses cracked DRM passwords. The only reason you can still provide is
that Apple generally doesn't care about these things as long as they

As has already been said the software is trivial to do, that's not the
issue, and providing unofficial software support based on reverse
engineering is entirely different to having an officially sanctioned
product. I can't imagine Linn are an Apple technology licensee so they
have nothing to lose (except money if the lawyers are set on them!),
but Logitech will be under signed agreements and no doubt have lots of
current and future products in the market based on those licences. 

Even now, a year on, as far as I'm aware airplay on consumer devices is
still only available on a single hardware platform.

[slim] Wireless rear surround speakers?

2012-03-15 Thread chill

I'd like to hook up a couple of rear surround speakers at the back of a
largish home theatre room, but I would prefer not to run speaker wires
from the amp at the front of the room - no wall-to-wall carpeting to
hide them under.

I'm imagining a product that connects to the surround speaker terminals
on the amp and transmits the output wirelessly, so that I can connect a
suitable receiver to, say, a T-amp near the surround speakers, or even
one T-amp per speaker.  I already have a T-amp and various pairs of
passive speakers that would suit.  The benefits of connecting to the
amp's speaker terminals are that the amp's volume and delay adjustments
would operate as normal.

Does such a product exist, and if not, how else can I do it?

similarly, I use "jewel sleeve" cases, and these contain CDs, front and
back inserts, booklets, etc. Only thing gone is the plastic jewel case.
I have in either special file cabinets or trunks (designed to hold the
jewel sleeves) in my home's utility room. This saved LOTS of space for
me. And frankly, once ripped, booklet read, etc. I never want to see
the actual CD again. As mentioned, I can find lots of info about each
album on the internet and only rarely have looked back at booklet.
Although they are well organized and I certainly can pull them out
easily.

He'll just have to gamble. Logitech never announce new products in

Re: [slim] Slacker stoppages anyone?

2012-03-15 Thread virgiliomi

More info from Slacker... apparently Logitech has been lax in
maintaining some of the various "apps" for all of the various supported
streaming services, while they focused their efforts on migrating MySB
to the Amazon cloud. Hence the issues experienced recently with both
Slacker and Pandora, among others. Obviously with the service now in
the cloud versus on Logitech's own servers, they can now return focus
to their support of some of the various internet music services we
love.

Also of interest, the Slacker person I chatted with has said that
Logitech has been provided with Slacker's latest API - which can
provide Premium-level on-demand features... so Logitech has the tools
to add more features to their Slacker "app", it's just a question of
whether they use them or not at this point. Here's to hoping... :)

Re: [slim] Why not in a car?

2012-03-15 Thread socistep

Audio in the car is one area which I still have to rely on apple
unfortunately (and occasionally cd)

I have a ford focus and installed a Kenwood head unit, it has a direct
connection for iPod/iPhone so I can control on the stereo itself,
mainly I use spotify on my old iphone 3G whilst listening as it has all
'new music' on, I had to jailbreak and install 'Music controls' app to
be able to fully use the spotify app with the stereo but it works very
well, I then occasionally use an ipod which has 'Top Rated' tracks on
and obviously more capacity to store them - thats mainly when my
girlfriend is in the car and she doesn't like my music!

I'm mainly an Android user so I'm hoping that in time there will be
head units that come out which will support my Android phone and tablet
and cut down on the number of devices I need to use!

I put my cds in the attic in their Jazz Loft sleeves (in boxes), which
saves space in the loft as well as the racks. On your other questions,
a) The Jazz Loft sleeves take up less room than a standard CD case so
will fit in your racks. b) The Jazz Loft sleeves are a gate-fold design
so take the back card and CD in the right half and the insert in the
left. The only thing discarded is the plastic case.

For deluxe box sets with books I just keep the CDs in their original
packaging.  I only use the Jazz Loft sleeves to replace standard CD
jewel cases.

I would not separate the CD from its insert either so leave both
together in the loft.  I find myself referring to the web when I need
information on a recording these days. Usually a lot more informative
than the sleeve notes.

Re: [slim] Podcast confusion

Historical mainly.

I think the rationale is as follows.

The older plugin was superceded by a newer app which intended to make
the transitions from mysb.com and a local LMS seamless.

Podcasts configured in the Podcast App on mysb.com are available to
players regardless whether player is attached to mysb.com or a local
LMS.

The older plugin was initially kept for compatibility with users who
had podcast configured and whi upgraded. IIRC The plug is now disabled
by default. 

I think there are problems will happen if you enable the podcast plugn
and have podcast app configured.

Re: [slim] Good Squeezebox alternative?

Looks like an overpriced ($ 1,200) streaming box with AirPlay.  May as
well get a Transporter or five SB Touch players for that price.  ;)
