Re: [slim] Beats Music to replace MOG..Where does that leave Squeezebox?

2014-01-17 Thread dsm1212

I'm thinking of trying last.fm. It looks like the service supports
multiple devices. Does the LMS plugin support multiple playback for
last.fm?

Well it didn't work on the trial I just did in November, but two of you
have said it does so maybe it was a trial limitation? That would be a
poor trial system because that's why I chose MOG. I'm speaking
specifically about multiple users hitting the LMS server. Maybe it's a
limitation of the triad Spotify plugin?

Spotify only lets me play one song at a time so if I have two players
they have to play the same thing. MOG does not have this limitation.
It's a huge limitation if you are serving up phones and ipads. With 5
people in my house I'd have to pay spotify $50/month instead of the $5 I
pay MOG. For $8/month I get netflix and every tv in my house can use it
as well as mobile devices at the same time. The impact on netflix to
deliver that content is much much higher than a few audio streams.
Spotify is just being greedy. So spotify is not a substitute, nor is it
a good buy. No info yet on how beats will work and then we'd have to
have someone develop a plugin too. Sigh.
