I have 3 Squeezeboxes and am trying to get them to work using a single e-mail account. I have found them to not work and have not been able to set up separate names (Squeezebox Names). Do they each need their own, separate e-mail accounts? Thanks for help and advice. Larry

I hvae found the correct solution via Google and am posting it here for the benefit of future readers of this post who may be using more than 1 Squeezebox and have the same problem I did.

All of the Squeezboxes can be on a single e-mail address so long as they each have their own Squeezebox name AND so long as they each have their unique player name chosen in the "Choose Player" menu.

Since each comes from the factory with the same identical name (Squeezebox Radio) and all of them have this default name chosen, the multiple radios conflict unless the method above is used. An alternative is, as I suspected, to set up separate e-mail accounts for each radio. Since I have a total of 4, this would be a huge PITA.

Needless to say, this is NOT described in any of the (very skimpy) literature whcih comes with the Squeezebox.

Hope it helps somebody to avoid the wasted time I spent digging this up.
