In my quest, I learned a bit more about the CuBox. I liked the new user interface and what I saw when I installed it, but unfortunately ran into a show-stopper bug. I tried Volumio again (which, prior to Archphile, was my go-to). So I need to find a distro, ideally one suited for music playback, that will run on the CuBox. And while they aren't weird, specialized hardware, they aren't ubiquitous Raspberry Pi variants either. In my case, I have two CuBox-i4Pro computers bought specifically as home music servers. But there's one extra detail to consider-the hardware. On the one hand, there are a lot of options-e.g., Kodi, OpenELEC, AudiophileLinux, Voyage MPD-or I could even try a server install of my favorite general purpose distro. This state of affairs prompted me to think about a new music server distro. I'm very sad to say that it appears Archphile is no longer, or at least so its website suggests. For some time now, Archphile has been my go-to Linux distro for my home music servers.
