Mama’s Got A

At some point, I may well get around to writing a review of my Squeezebox (summary: Love the mutherfunker to pieces), but as I sit here in my hotel room in San Diego (vaguely contemplating sleep prior to the start of ETech), I must say how impressed I am with the Softsqueeze Java player.

Thanks to its built-in SSH tunneling, I’m able to listen to my entire music collection on my server at home as if I were there. An excellent idea, and proof of the value of building an open infrastructure to support proprietary hardware.
