That is what keeps breaking.              The LMS had great features ahead of it's time...you could have multiple       devices all playing the same thing, in synch (and I did, at one point). MPD       supports streaming but not this. And the LMS devices had nice things built in       like alarm clocks and even RSS readers.              But Logitech abandoned it a long time ago, and that's ancient history. I like       what I'm doing with my RPi 3 running Rune Audio/MPD.              I find it interesting that the alternatives like Sonos still don't do what       Squeeze did.       The AHK Gang! Live on Riot.im. When we feel like it.       --- SBBSecho 3.10-Linux        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/2 90/1 103/705 154/10 203/0 218/700 221/0 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/354 426 452 616 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464       SEEN-BY: 280/5003 292/854 310/31 317/3 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 633/280 712/848 770/1 2452/250 5020/545       PATH: 103/705 280/464 229/426           |
