Re: Open letter to Seth & TB (was Re: [AT] Reminder about this forum.)

I have been on this list for over two years and I have to agree with
Michael. Is this really a competing product? I think not. This thread is
a chance for TB to get a really good idea of what everyone is looking
for right now. If TB is not producing an AT replacement, then stay a
part of the forum and contribute to the conversation as well. TB can
gain simply be being a symbiotic host to a new product in an
appreciative open source community. If TB is planning another product,
then just say so and we can move this coversation over to NetAudio.
Maybe it's time for another patent search???

Personally, nothing urks me more than 'hiding behind the rules' instead
of just being honest.

I love my AT, I have not found a suitable replacment but Im ready to put
something good into 4 more rooms in my house in the next 1 month to 1
year. Open source preferred with mp3, flac, ogg, coax, front panel disp,
1U, nice remote, syncronzied playback. no server software.

thank you...

Perhaps what Seth really means is «any similar product».

We've discussed amplifiers, loudspeakers, NASes, D/A converters, and
Seth hasn't protested. But he's protested every time we've touched on
MP3 players from other vendors, no matter whether it's in the same
market segment or not.

That doesn't quite chime with my understanding of «competing», but it
does make sense... Seth, am I right?
