 Logitech® About Squeezebox™ Thank you for purchasing the Squeezebox™ music player.

With Squeezebox™, you can also listen to Internet radio stations, set alarms, display RSS feeds, and more! This user guide includes setup and basic operating instructions for your new player.

First, collect your digitized music into one place on your computer. You can put all the files in a single directory, or create a series of subdirectories. The software you use to 'rip' your CDs, such as iTunes, may already do this and organize your music files by album or by artist. 2. Next, download the latest version of the SlimServer software to the same computer as your music collection. You can find the latest version of SlimServer™ here: http://www.slimdevices.com/download
