Added Note box pointer to the new Logitech Media Server How-to.
{{Note box|April 2016: The squeezebox server software has been renamed (yet again) to "Logitech Media Server". Also the repositories used by this How-to appear to have vanished but there is a download site. See the http://wiki.contribs.org/Logitech_Media_Server How-to for further information and installation onto SME9.1 x86_64.}}
