Abe, Yes the squeezebox is dead. Certainly as far as new sales go.
But when I look at my Stereo System it is made up of a lot of 'dead' components. I have Tube Amps that I built as kits from Welborne Labs, that have been 'dead' for 5 years before the Squeezebox Touches hit the Market. The Tubes in it are RCA Globe 45s from 1934 and have been dead longer than I have been alive.
My Welborne Tube Pre-amp has also been dead for 12 years.... The 6SN7 tubes in it are Sylvania Chrome Domes that have been dead since 1961.
My Klipschorn Bass Bins were designed in 1949... I do have modern Oris Horns from 2011.
So, even though my Squeezebox is 'Dead', it continues to play as well as my other old stuff. It's just a matter of perspective.
