Pandora menus have always been a bit weird and maybe a change broke something or SC had a workaround that no longer works after a change in 7.8 Hi! Thanks for the reply, I will give that a shot when I get back home. It is not only with Pandora, any of MyApps seems to be broken. Can you try it with SiriusXM? dustinsterk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19649 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69352 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Squeezebox 2015 - Is the Squeezebox Universe Expanding of Shrinking?
ctbarker32 wrote: I am also discouraged that pretty much all of the proprietary music server systems seem to use DLNA type technology that we all know doesn't hold a candle to the performance and features of LMS. This, despite many of these systems being no more than customized Linux computers. Is there any reason other manufacturers cannot implement LMS/Squeezebox support into their own products the way open source applications already do? Every time I see a new proprietary music server solution (usually at a high cost) I feel it is always reinventing the wheel and solving problems that have already been solved by LMS? Hi, I guess there is a simple reason: You can't earn money with it. Look at the SOtM sMS-100 . It is priced as high as 499 here in Germany and nothing more than a raspie with pi-coreplayer you can buy for 60. If you take a cubie +2 tb Disk, you pay about 200 and have a complete server player system with more diskspace than you probably ever need for music. How should a commercial company compete with prices like this? I don`t think people will pay that much just for a fancy case and the installation service. What we can do to expand is spread it all over!! My Girlfriend now has a raspie as player, a cubie as server and player and a SB-Radio. She loves it and has no problems using it. I wrote an article in a german tube forum and may people got a cubie after this. So if we all spread the potential of the squeeze universe, we will be on the expanding side.

How should a commercial company compete with prices like this? I don`t think people will pay that much just for a fancy case and the installation service. I believe you need to make a distinguish between technical knowledgeable customers and customers without technical knowledge. For sure, those of us who are able to get a Pi or whatever hardware running as a streamer won't pay that kind of money. But there are far more customers out there who can't do that. It are these people who will pay a premium for a streamer. So, there sure would be a possible market for a Squeezebox client like product if LMS wouldn't be a requirement. The LMS part is yet another reason why it doesn't happen. Apart from the possible technical challenges of having to setup an LMS server (again a certain level of technical knowledge required) there is still the fact that LMS is an End Of Live product. There is no sane manufacture out there who will design and produce a product based up on an EOL product (which they even do not own). The financial risks are way to high.
