Is there a chance that a future SoftSqueeze will work with Rhapsody (via
SlimServer) or is this, as was suggested, a licensing issue ?
Being able to search the whole Rhapsody library from a Squeezebox would
be great too - Yotta has done a really great job of showing that fast
searching (AJAX)

Take a look at the experimental cover art selector in Moose too (PC
based application) .
You see your albums arranged as covers all in one window and
overlapping, rotated and even moving around ! Bit like throwing them all

First a caveat - the current version of xAP SlimServer was not written
for the current CLI that is in v 6 of SlimServer and particularly not

Just to put my 2c worth in I agree that generally the release

How silent is it? Under or over 20db? Louder than a new Tivo?
Definitely louder but it varies its fan speed based on the drive
temperature and number of drives installed. I would suggest it's not
for having in your listening room whilst listening to quiet music
though...
