I don't think you will see any real performance gain on the music
storage side during normal operations. But an SSD for the OS and LMS
application and database provides a dramatic improvement, particularly
on Windows based systems.

Playlist Manager only works on the player interface (on my SB3 using the
remote) and allows you to add the current track to a playlist.

It's worth paying for OrangeSqueeze as an Android controller. And if you
want to play songs from LMS on your phone, buy Squeezeplayer. The two of
them work well together.

Orangesqueeze is well worth the minimal cost and paired with
Squeezeplayer is a nice way to use your Android phone as a player.

Probably cheaper and easier to set up a wireless bridge. Get one of
these:
'TP-LINK TL-WR740N Wireless N150 Home Router'
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833704037)
for less than $20 USD, configure it as a WDS Bridge, plug the SB1 into
it with an ethernet cable and be done.
If the Boom and Radio are fine, fully functional SB3s are routinely
available on e-bay for under $150 USD. I recently picked up 3 for $125
each for some friends who were envious of my system.
