Title: App request - Windows RT
Post by: Logic800 on August 01, 2013, 06:36:28 am
Hi all, first post but long time UK based customer. I've just purchased the much maligned Surface RT, and for my use it is a great machine but, and it's a big but, I'm having to use a competitor's app to stream my music from a NAS.  Please do a RT app version of MC19 (that will do gapless).  Thanks.

Welcome.  At this point, there is no possibility that we'll do an RT version.  Sorry.  We're working on Linux (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=82440.0) next.

I believe the sales of the RT version is significantly worse than what MS anticipated. So, I do not believe it's smart to focus on that.... Yet. It might be a future for it, but I tend to believe that Windows 8 will be the preferred platform for a long time. Especially now with new Haswell Pads coming out.

I wonder what will happen with the Xbox One. The hardware is x86, but they will probably only allow Metro apps, if anything, to run on it.
