What do you mean by "error prone"?... Delays?... Picks tracks that you were not expecting? Fails to pick tracks? Have you tried MusicIP using the more stable Windows platform? I have listened to Genius generated mixes, but the resulting Genius mixes are not as diverse as the ones that I get from MusicIP. If I don't set any limitations on variety, I get to listen to tracks in my library that I never knew I had. My FLAC library is ~230GB. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. MusicIP bases its mixes on sound signature tags (or if not embedded on tags, on an index of signatures associated with the tracks). The mixes are generated "locally" using these signatures. No need to be connected to the MusicIP server to generate mixes. I'm not too familiar with the technology behind Genius. How exactly are Genius mixes generated? Do they require a connection to iTunes... and if so why? -- tamanaco ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tamanaco's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4620 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=61977 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
