Doing a  "wget http://files.jriver.com/mediacenter/channels/v22/latest/MediaCenter-22.0.36-armhf.deb" then "sudo dpkg -i MediaCenter-22.0.36-armhf.deb" works however....

That should work fine.

Your error sounds like you have a mixed up installation (like packages from an old distro).
MC doesn't care about or specify systemd.

Which MC repo are you using?

Bob is right, the error message is unrelated to JRiver, the issue is that apt often won't let you perform package operations when your dependencies are messed up, even for packages that are unrelated to avoid making the issue worse.  That's the reason dpkg works because dpkg just does what you tell it to do and doesn't do any broader error checking.  If I had to guess you tried to upgrade in place from an older debian version or switched to testing and have broken dependencies. 

An easy way to test is to try and apt-get install any other package; you're likely to see the same error.

Yes, I can confirm that it is not just MC.... I also get that error for any package I'm trying to install on my "Clean" Axiom Air as well. 

On both Units, I did an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade first before trying to do the upgrade / install MC.... I was under the impression this was the "right thing" to do occasionally (and a whole bunch of stuff was updated).  Now I've got this cyclical dependency error and can not install anything using apt-get install.  Lucky for me I also can re-image them if needed (which will have to wait for the weekend till I'm back).

You can try a
sudo apt-get -f install
and see what it will try to do to clean up the dependencies.
It likely ask to remove some stuff...
