what scares me most about reviews like these and single box solutions is the lack of backup and the cost (time and/or $) to re-rip CDs. I completely get the "I want one transaction to cover equipment and ripping" mentality, but he doesn't have a backup solution, nor the current ability to add additional playback units. From a marketing standpoint, these are the caveats/features I talk up most when getting someone into ripping/streaming audio.
I know that Stereophile and most high end magazines give the manufacturer the ability to respond to a review before printing time to correct any errors or address any concerns. IMHO, it would be wise for Logitech SMS Marketing to reach out to these "web" authors with a "thanks for the review, we are working to help customers differentiate our solutions and the unique benefits they offer. Here are some additional considerations should you decide to revisit our products in the future." From my experience, education is the biggest gap in getting the mainstream to adopt streaming/digital storage concepts. SlimDevices offers some unique differences and features that require some awareness above the obvious issues in order to be fully appreciated. -- twylie Thecus N5200 -> transporter -> Krell KRC2 -> nuforce 8b -> Sonus Faber Concertos / Audio Physic Sparks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ twylie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=956 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43724 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
