A word about music sources
All players and controllers in the Squeezebox family must be connected to a music
source in order to function. There are two possible music sources: SqueezeNetwork™
and SqueezeCenter™.
SqueezeNetwork
SqueezeNetwork is a free, Internet-based service provided by Logitech. It allows you
to connect to a wide variety of services, including Internet radio guides and network
music services, like Rhapsody® and Pandora® Radio. You can even store your own music
collection in an online MP3tunes Music Locker so you can listen to your music when your
computer is turned off. Please note that some music services may charge a separate fee
for use; we provide free trials so you may try them first.
SqueezeCenter
SqueezeCenter is the application you run on a computer connected to your local
network to deliver your personal music collection to the Squeezebox players in your
home. If you are planning to upload your personal music to an MP3tunes Music Locker,
or you are only going to listen to Internet radio or use a music service, you do not need
SqueezeCenter. If you choose to use SqueezeCenter, it will automatically connect to your
SqueezeNetwork account whenever you select an Internet radio station or music service.
