Re: Box for the lounge to play music, spotify etc

[Steve Pillings <byronsp@xxxxxxxxx>]

Squeezebox touch does spotify and has an iPhone remote (ipeng). I have
not used it but have various old older squeezeboxes running napster and
iTunes integration.

However does not do video and it around 200 quid. However likely to be the
easier option than a htpc atom PC which can be made user friendly but takes
time to get working well (although that could do video as well)
