Possibly. It really depends on the demand.

DLNA provides pretty much no features at all other than defining some

This is WHY SC is different (and better). Look at Sonos for comparison,
they also use the UPnP server just as a data source and do all the sync

I am looking into buying a player such as the SB to play CDs that I have
ripped to the HD as flac files. If SB can act as a DLNA client and can
receive streams from other DLNA servers, be it a fully featured

the SB much easier.

Yes i know all that, and thats what i already said.
OK, this thread seems to back and forth about what DLNA role(s) it's

DLNA provides a mere subset of what is available in Slimserver...
I would think "providing less functionality" would be low on the list
of things people want.

The real issue is that SD's business model is to give away the server

The primary benefit to Logitech as I see it would be more people using
Squeezecenter and possibly more 3rd party development on server
optimization. It's also a "gateway drug" for people to get an idea of

The user benefits would be people who have Slim/Squeeze/wha

You bought the wrong device, get over it. Sell your SB3 (very high resale
