From the "I told you so" department...

So, a couple of years ago there were heated discussions (of which I was a participant) about why some of us wanted flash cards/thumb drives to be added to the Squeezebox. On the other side were numerous (too many to count) and staunch responses that said this feature would require substantial re-working of the entire SC architecture. For example, see this thread from 2007:

Or this flamewar (I think I actually originated the request for this feature - see post #6):

So, my question is, what happened? Were the naysayers just plain wrong (which I thought at the time), or have there been substantial changes to the SC software to make this (highly desirable) new feature possible? Just curious...
