Hi!
It’s with great pleasure that I use almost exclusively Moode for listening to music. The latest 6.7.1 release brought further compatibility and stability.
Concerning future upgrades, I find that the use of the microSD card for loading the system represents (at least for me) the main issue. This is because an audiophile fanless pi4 is getting quite hot and sooner or later the sd card is dead. In addition, changing the SD card in a boxed pi (for a different use) is a real pain requiring in most cases special tools. Last but not least, if someone wants to accommodate a lot of high-resolution music files in a single media together with the system this is not possible given the limited space of the reasonably priced sd cards.
Now my million dollar question: Would it be technically possible (as in the case of Volumio) to see one day in Moode the possibility of transferring the system in a USB connected Hard Disk and get rid of the micro SD after installation?
Thanks for considering this question.
