I liked using iTunes with airport express, but my airport express died. I bought an SB classic as the replacement.
My tunes are on a Drobo attached by firewire to a mac mini. I have the iTunesUpdate plug in and iPeng. This gets me very close to the mac/itunes/ipod touch experience I had before. I like the "direct" remote control for the Squeezebox. What I don't like with Squeezecenter is the web interface, comparred with iTunes I find it clunky. I have an iTunes account so most artwork is found automatically (Funnily, it only displays on the first song in Squeezecenter), iTunes keeps the music file organised. I can find artists and the albums easily outside iTunes if I want. If an album doesn't have artwork I can use amazon, for example, for a cover photo and then easily add it to iTunes via iPhoto. For a mac user, all of this is very easy to use. I'm considering going back to the airport express, because of the overall simplicity and I cannot hear any major difference in sound quality, that's sisng the same DAC before my hifi system.
