and I'm enjoying so much I'm thinking of subscribing and possibly
upgrading to 'Hifi' which offers CD quality or FLAC or whatever.
I'm very new to this streaming so bare with me.
Question is will I gain full sound quality advantage of Deezer Hifi
through my Squeezebox?
I'm using Logitech Media Server 7.9.1 and currently use the Web Control
to control the music etc. from my laptop.
Thank you,
Rob.
