I don't believe so. I'm curious why this is an issue for people. Do
people have lots of explicit tracks they don't want their kids near? Or
are they embarrassed to see certain artists in their list?
Probably off-topic: the easiest interface to use is the Touch - I like
the simple layout AND the ability to have presets.
The squeezeplay/squeezelite interface is great because it simulates the

I would venture to say that they are probably very proud that something
they created is being kept alive by the community that loves it. In my
eyes that is a true success.
As much as I enjoy my SB system I doubt that I would look to a community
funded SB should I have to look to replace my system. Perhaps if a new
company came to life and ran with this I may take a look. The challenge
I see is that the SB system which I do enjoy requires some tinkering

There probably aren't enough squeezeboxes out there for TuneIn to care
about. You also have to factor in that the number of squeezeboxes out
there is not growing, they will probaly shrink as people stop using them
or they fail.
