You don't get better audio quality by streaming an ogg file as lossless.

I do not know if all possible ogg decoders necessarily produce identical output


It's a waste of resources.
It does take more CPU usage - as it has to be decoded (and maybe flac encoded)
It does take more bandwidth on your network.

What for you is a waste of ressources is for me the main appeal in having a _slim_ hardware device - flexibility.


I just do not care if the sb uses 1.7% of my bandwidth or 0.2% and if your server can't take oggdec+flac without breaking a sweat it probably freezes solid for an hour whenever you hit rescan anyway.

We aren't going to reach agreement on this one - let's drop it.
