Hot on the heels of Logitech Squeezeboxing their CEO out the door, I got this e-mail offer for half-off any single Logitech product.
I suspected it might be a phish, so rather than click on the link in the ad that went to logitech-newsletter2.com, I went to logitech.com to look at the Squeezebox Touch, an item that I’ve been very interested in, but not for $300.
I doubted the discount code in the e-mail ad would work, but whatta ya know… it did.
So I ordered it and will hook it up to the living room stereo, where it will sit next to a 25-year-old turntable. Slacker is one of the music services Logitech has, and lately I’ve been listening to their BBC Radiophonic Workshop station. It has all sorts of stuff, from classic British movie and TV themes to avant-garde jazz to sound effects.
I’m ticked off at CBS, because they’re blocking their radio stations from tunein.com, so they won’t play on the Squeezebox.
Ooh! I’m jealous!
