Hi Jim, thanks for putting that bulls-eye on your forehead.
I bought a SB3 in Nov. of '05 because it offered the greatest
potential for sound quality. I had it modified by Vinnie Rossi of
Redwine Audio. I am thrilled with the sound quality. As I am not the
most computer savvy of sorts, I barely got the interface to work. I am
slightly embarrassed to admit that my albums appear as playlists, there
are no artists or genres,  and some albums appear, but only randomly.
Some albums/playlists don't appear at all, but the individual track
files are in the music folder. I am loathe to change anything for fear
totally screwing things up to the point of not being able to use it at
all.( If there are any tagging savvy individuals in the Bellingham WA
area, I would appreciate any help in sorting out these problems)  I
could care less about album art or streaming internet radio. I would
REALLY have appreciated a CD included with Slimserver and all the
software needed to rip and tag ( EAC, FLAC front end etc.) my CDs. How
difficult would that have been? ( A rhetorical question) 
Its my impression that Slimdevices fans fall into 2 distinct
camps. Those, like myself, that value sound quality above all else,
that wouldn't be caught dead using MP3s, and those who want all sorts
of convenience with various formats, internet streams, album art,
plug-ins, alarm clocks, etc. I wouldn't care if my next SB were encased
in fuzzy grey carpet as long as its audio quality was superior to my
existing SB3.
Being a baker by trade, I can make a cake at least 4 different
ways. If you want a great cake, leave the cake making to the
professionals. All I want from Slim Devices is a great front end for my
stereo.
Jim, welcome to the asylum!
