Yahoo Music(aka Musicmatch)streams at 190Kbps WMA through the Jukebox application and is probably the best sounding larger service out there. Problem is that they only support Roku Soundbridge and a few others, not Slimserver/SB etc... I wish they did because the service is really pretty good. I subscribe for the higher quality and often listen directly on my PC. I use the Linksys Music Bridge to get it to my audio system -- not nearly ideal or as good as using my SB. -- jt25741 SB3->AR Masters Coax -> PS Audio DLIII -> Cardas Golden Reference XLR -> Sim Audio P5 -> Cardas Golden Reference XLR -> Sim Audio W5 -> PS Audio Xtreme Plus(Low) AQCV4(mid/hi)-> Magnepan 3.6R ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jt25741's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8645 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34718 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
