I found: 1. If you start Squeezebox Touch with no internet connection, you are allowed to "continue" but five days later the music stops. If you want to play music, you must start over. And starting over seems to require reselecting "random mix" in my application, among many other keypresses. 2. If you try to start with a loopback, you are not allowed to play music at all. Regarding my dissatisfaction with requiring an internet connection, I have not yet expressed these reservations: 1. If the owner of the webpage that must be accessed to allow the player to play turns off the webpage, your player becomes mostly unusable. 2. Alternatively, the owner might try to "monetize" the access to your hardware. They might charge you an annual fee, or sell your playlist to an advertising concern, for example. 3. It is highly inconvenient to bring a wired connection to the device for me. And it is adjacent to another wireless device with which it might interfere (although I have configured that other device to run at 5 GHz, while the Touch is only capable of using the 2.4 GHz band). So I find the current situation dissatisfying and unsustainable, but acceptable in the short run, at least. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ joegorin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=68547 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110255 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
