Simplicity is great. Before I had my SB3 I used the Tivo to stream music to my stereo. But the SB3 sounds a lot better. But unfortunately it is a lot less 'user-friendly'. My wife still uses the Tivo interface (MusicMagic) only. And it is indeed easier to use. I would be happy if I would just see the same thing on my SB3 as TiVo sees from the MMM interface:
Instant Mix Playlists Artists Albums Genres Filters THe INstant Mix gives a random MMM mix (which is fast on TiVO). My random mix on SB3 starts after about 5 seconds, on TiVo basically instantaneously (same music library). The Artist are in multiple folders of similar number of entries. Instead of having to scroll from A to Q if you want to listen to Queen, you can just scroll down to the folder with Queen in it. Probably 5-10 click on the remote at the most. So, in short, maybe not TiVo but MusicMagic did a great job to make my music readily available with a couple of clicks. For those who want internet radio, RSS, and whatever, just add some more categories. But keep it simple and especially FAST! -- treble ------------------------------------------------------------------------ treble's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2797 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20773 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
