Huh? The SB3 doesn't stream the music. This isn't even a remotely valid comparison... > - I do not do FLAC as I am using ITunes to stream music via > airtunes to all the other rooms except the SB3 bedroom. Shame. FLAC kicks butt... > As an Apple fan, flac is not doing anything for you. So > what does it need to get rid of my SB3. Huh? Now I'm really confused. > A Airport express device that has a display and can > connect to the internet without a computer's help.. > then.. but only then you can have my SB3.. An WiFi > Ipod is not doing much for me as long as it does not > connect to the internet... Can I get first dibs on your SB3? Because I'm betting that either an Airport-like device will have a display or an ipod will be internet capable within a year. What would be useful is if the ipod could be used as a remote for slimserver. Because I don't want any company telling me what I can do with the music I've purchased. It's bad enough that I can't listen to music I purchased with iTunes before I knew what I was doing can't be played in my car (unless I do the burn/rip dance), but I'll be damned if I'll let Apple (or slim, or any one company) tell me what format I can or can't have my music stored in. I like Macs and Apple in general. I still have a Mac Plus from my college days (that actually runs). I just hate what they've done to exploit the lemmings otherwise known as consumers.
