The main thing is its ability to play music and be controlled a large music database across the living room with a standard look remote control.
I spent months converted all my music to Apple Lossless to be used with my Macbook pro based audio system, with the understanding that it is supported by the Squeezebox. So your stereotypification of my usage of the box is unfounded. And I am as much a Squeezebox fanboy as you are, except I expect it to perform the two basic functions that it used to perform well, play music from across the room with a remote control. -- agentsmith Main System: Source: Macbook Pro/M2Tech HiFace/Naim DAC/Teddy XPS Amplification: Naim 282/200/Hicap+Powerline/NAPSC Speakers: Harbeth Monitor 30 Bedroom System: SB2 or Airport Express + Meridian AD88 Missing my Transporter ------------------------------------------------------------------------ agentsmith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1838 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78217 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
