the appeal to anyone is based on the individual. in my case, the HQ hardware that excelled at sound reproduction, via a stereo. a second and almost as important consideration for me was the ability to listen without a computer on. another difference between SB and the products you mention is the focus on audio handling and services. how your music is presented and manipulated, and/or using 3rd party servics like pandora. chances are future SBS development will include DLNA/upnp [soon] and video [later] but the orig idea of the SB was to focus on perfect audio to multiple clients via one server. -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 & sbc (my home) / sbr (parent's home) - w/sc 7.3.4b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69635
