Is There a New version of Logitech Media Server?

I noticed a messsage on my music server yesterday indicating a new version of Logitech Media Server was available. Have not had a chance to investigate further yet.

That surprised me in that Logitech no longer produces Squeezebox clients for the server and I had not noticed any updates available for quite a while.

So is this a legit update? Who is supporting the server these days and doing updates? Logitech still?

If anyone knows anything about this, please chime in.

Thanks.

If you go over to audio asylum there is a warning about this upgrade. It is chrashing the program for a lot of people and you cannot go back. They say they are working on the problem but no luck yet. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS UPGRADE

Hmmm. Yesterday I was unable to connect to mysqueezebox.com (and thus access Pandora and MOG) for an hour or so, then fine. Sorry to be of no help!

I received the message, too. Don't do it! It started to install and then crashed during install. Had to go find previous version and re-install. It was strange! Maybe user error, but I don't think so.

Here is the opening post, decide for yourself.

["Which is 7.7.3
It does not work and when I called tech help the guy said that they are attempting a software fix and meanwhile there is no tech help being offered and no way back to the previous version.
He also said in all the time he has worked at their tech dept he has never ever seen so many calls coming in all for the same problem."]
