    SqueezePlay turns your PC into a squeezebox

    This does not seem to be emphasized by Logitech.

    Can someone tell me how to get the "current" SqueezePlay? What's the version?

    The only place I see it is in the "beta" department.

    Will it ever be possible to install SqueezePlay from a webUI selection?

    Does anybody think that understanding what SBS does would push hardware and that using the system with a software player would help this initiative?

    I would guess the current Squeezeplay version can be found here:
    Download Logitech Media Server to feed music to your Squeezebox, Squeezelite based players or SqueezePlay and compatible software packages. Free the Music!

    Windows installers and Deb packages are present, so there isn't actually any need for WebUI installation. They could provide a link to SP on the SBS download page and emphasize that you can somewhat test the Radio and Touch interfaces with it, but then again SP doesn't always work reliably and that would be counterproductive then. Unfortunately it seems that there isn't enough manpower to polish the SP desktop version properly.

          Which is a shame. I think it should be as important as the other Squeezeboxes....

            It's never going to be as important as hardware Logitech can actually sell.
