I have nearly 10,000 songs all MP3 on a Linkstation 2. The web interface is slow, but I don't really use that much. The responce to the remote is fine (the same as Softsqueeze on my main PC) I used to run it over a wireless network, but kept getting drop outs, so I now use Homeplug and have no problems. One thing though, don't try to use it if it is still scanning your music as I get the same sort of responce times that you are getting -- cuk0724 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
