I think the biggest problem with the Logitech/Squeeze Media Server was it's
dependency on Perl.   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.
