Are they still usable?  I thought Logitech had abandoned them?  I have the earlier version (Squeezebox Radio) which I still use for Internet radio and bedtime clock and alarm.

 

It requires the Logitech Media Server to work which until recently I had running on a Windows box but now I found I can run that on a Pi which I had online anyway to support HA. The LMS can even see my audio on my Windows box.

@lchiu7 The Logitech UE Radio can be changed to run the Squeezebox software (it is built into the menus).

I see but I presume you still need the LMS?  Some Googling shows that you can still listen to Spotify on them even though support has been discontinued by hacking a server or something. I bought one for my daughter to use for Spotify but now she just uses her phone or Amazon Echo.
