This is the cheapest player with all these features available on the market. We built a very high quality full features product so we needed to price accordingly. We had very little request for an analog output so we saved cost by not putting one on the unit. We do have one for an extra $35 http://shop.smallgreencomputer.com/VortexBox-USB-to-RCA-cable-DAC-USB-DAC.htm But at this point most people just want a USB port for their DAC. rip, tag, get cover artÂ… All you do is insert the CD! http://vortexbox.org agillis Lead Developer VortexBox ------------------------------------------------------------------------ agillis's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21140 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104962
