Hey, don't get me wrong Michael. I am super-psyched that this is working
right now. I think I'll still be up playing around with it tonight in
the wee hours. I see already it has some cool new smart search functions
where it guesses what artist or album you are typing into the search
window. Like a lot of the other better search engines. Maybe a fairly
common thing these days, but a very nice touch.

I had sort of given up that I would ever be able to update the LMS
software. I looked back at the case I opened with Logitech when I
started having scanning problems with 7.6 software. It was back in 2011,
and they basically told me they couldnt help me and I should just keep
using 7.5.5. Couple that with the fact that I use the Squeezebox *every
single day, for hours and hours*. I'm a long-time music collector. These
days I mostly collect LPs, but I still have a collections of several
thousand discs. And when I'm not playing LPs, I spend a lot of time
checking out new music wirelessly. This may sound ridiculous, but I use
the Squeezebox so much that I have been afraid to upgrade the operating
system on my iMAC. Because the one time I did that, 7.5.5 server
software stopped working, and I already had it in my mind that if I
upgraded it, I would run into scanning issues.

Anyway, for now I am having fun with it. And I have one more question
for the moment:

The Squeezebox device itself is now continually prompting me to upgrade
the firmware to 7.9.0. For now, I am ignoring the notice. Just being
overly cautious, but in the event I do find I cant use 7.9.0 and need to
revert back to something earlier like 7.5.5 again, is there any issue
with having the updated firmware on the device itself while having an
earlier LMS version on your computer?
