In that case your "backup" would be the original files on your computer. Their server could go down, data can get corrupted, they may go out of business, who knows.... but I would have duplicates of any such files and data regardless of where it is stored. They have already partnered with MP3Tunes to do exactly what you wish but in a simpler format and designed specifically for music and live streaming. Try streaming a music file from your online data storage to any device or server program to test it yourself. :) -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=63682 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
