you purchase ipeng and you separately purchase the play option. So

On the inside it's the same as an SB3, so if you're okay with the form
factor (sometimes compared to a 1970s era clock radio), it's as good as
an SB3/Classic. And it fits in a wider variety of spaces. I have two

Ask the seller to look on the bottom of the device itself. There is a
tag there that will clearly mark it as a Squeezebox 2. If it's a
Squeezebox 1 it will simply be labeled Squeezebox.

If you have a subscription to the higher audio quality streams from

There's no jazzradio.com app for SB. However, you can get the URL of

Yes, they definitely produced the SB2 in both wifi and non-wifi models.
They initially did so with the SB3 as well, but later dropped the
non-wifi model sometime after the Logitech acquisition.
