RE: Volumio - Revisited

I don't think we are going to have much to talk about then.

But for someone new to Computer Audio, Volumio might be the best choice. This is due to no need to SSH or finding the player on the network via the router etc.

Just Flash, power up and go to volumio.local/ in your web browser to set-up.

Finding music on a NAS or connected drive is just a click away and done.
Finding a output device just select from the pull-down menu and done.
Finding a Internet Radio station, its preloaded with Shoutcast or add your own.
Plays Spotify, just download the plugin...sign in and play.

No other apps like LMS ie Tidal et.al.

Looks cool and it works [so far]. For the person who is totally Green to Computer Audio Volumio would be a great choice. Sound wise, it has the MPD flavor to my ears, which is slightly more thick/full in the lows vs. Squeeze.

Thats it.
