[slim] Unresponsive to remote then server closes

2011-01-08 Thread kweller

The Transporter is a very good player but I believe it is a bit overpriced. Especially for the age of technology you’re buying. I would get the Touch instead. If you’re not happy with the sound it produces you still can get a good DAC and have spent less money than you would on the Transporter
