Question: How do you primarily use your Squeezebox Controller?
    
- I usually place it back in the cradle after I've selected my music
- It tends to follow me around the house
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for those responses. Having had a look at what the controller is,
I can't actually see any extra features that would make it more useful
for my particular needs than my present system. So, if I had a Duet, I
suspect my answer to the thread's question would still be "wouldn't use
it", assuming I could still control the server using http.

Thanks for your observation EnochLight. Yes, I've spent some time
comparing WAV and MP3 160Kbit/s and have decided that I can hardly
detect the difference on a blind test. I have good audio equipment and
I suspect the reason is to do with my age. It is known that one's
sensitivity to high frequencies deteriorates with age, and now I'm over
sixty (so old I can't work out how to change my description on this
forum from Junior Member) it's possible this effect is disguising the
artifacts introduced by the MP3 compression. Mind you, I am sure there
are stacks of people around who pontificate authoritatively on the
merits of FLAC over MP3 who would consistently fail a blind test. But
this is off-topic.
