Ça, c'est fait.

Pour ceux qui n'ont pas eu la curiosité de lire l'article, il y est indiqué que Logitech va abandonner la Revue.
Or, la Revue était un peu l'espoir auquel nous pouvions nous accrocher pour espérer que Logitech ne lâche pas la gamme Squeezebox.
Mais après avoir lu la
transcription complète de la conférence, je crois que la situation n'est pas si désespérée qu'elle en avait l'air :
Guerrino De Luca (le CEO de Logitech), indique que la musique est le marché à développer pour Logitech, et que s'ils ont déjà d'excellents produits orientés audio, ils doivent améliorer leur approche des produits :
Music, this is the single biggest, the single fastest growing and the single natural target for us. As I said we have technology, we have presence, we have module and acoustics, we have wireless speakers, we have wonderful products, we’ve acquired Slim Devices which is an Ethernet and local network streaming platform. We have a brand, we have distribution we have everything we just don’t have a product approach there.
Ashish Arora (responsable du département roulage de joints ?

) en fait plus tard des tonnes sur le streaming, et en particulier les services musicaux en ligne - statistiques issues des bases de données de mysqueezebox.com à l'appui - et évoque le fait que la Squeezebox est un produit qui fonctionne très bien (en terme de ventes) :
So we have a portfolio of audio products. The PC is definitely – the music around PC is changing but it is definitely resilient. The other 25 percent market share in speakers. We also have the Squeezebox product line we have actually seen a significant growth in Europe especially to our partnership and service providers but it is also growing worldwide and then we also have the Ultimate Ears brand for earphones today, which is a leading brand among the professional musicians.
(...)
So how are we going to harness that and what is our approach to music in the whole? We are actually going to take two approaches. One is where the Tablet and Smartphone becomes a conduit either becomes the source of music or become the conduit to the internet music and allow you to stream music from the smartphone/tablet to wireless speakers. It could be using Bluetooth. It could be using (AirPlay).
The second approach and maybe even slightly different consumer demographic is what we do in Squeezebox today which is this idea of value upgrade music. Streaming music is actually to the speaker either to through the cloud or this is really in PC, so two different approaches, two different use cases but also maybe two different demographics. That is in the home.
Mes prédictions à deux balles pour 2012 :
1. Un renforcement de la gamme des platines Squeezebox
2. L'arrivée d'une platine logicielle destinée aux périphériques mobiles
