Increasingly downloads are direct to the portable player, further reducing the need to get a standard computer involved, or even an SB Touch.
I don't own an iAnything and don't plan to (my portable players are my Blackberry and a Sansa), whereas I have more SBs than I can use right now. But if your hypothetical user doesn't want to rip, tag, or otherwise faff about with music files on a computer and already has a portable player, then I think any network music solution (SB, Sonos, Cisco, Sooloos, etc) is just asking for frustration. Some people shouldn't sew their own clothes, some people shouldn't drive manual transmissions, and some people shouldn't run network music systems. Maybe I'm just not a good proselytizer.... -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67637 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
