Logitech Squeezebox Touch

In my review of the Logitech UE Smart Radio, there's a single parenthetical line mentioning that the company is discontinuing the Squeezebox line of products. Incredibly, that's more than Logitech has officially said on the matter, leaving the passionate fans of the Squeezebox platform wondering what's going to happen to their network audio streamers.

To be clear, the Squeezebox product line is unequivocally over. Logitech representatives have confirmed to me that there will be no new Squeezebox products, and the Logitech Web site has been virtually wiped of any mention of the Squeezebox brand. The new UE Smart Radio is not compatible with Squeezebox products, despite running software that doesn't seem all that different. But I'd bet that many Squeezebox owners have little idea that the platform is going away, Logitech Squeezebox Touch
