Probably an Ipod in a dock is actually all that most normal users need. I'm currently using completely separate music databases for Itunes and Squeezebox Slightly scruffy & 320k files and disorganized ID3 tags for the Itunes data and FLAC with perfectly organized id3 tags for the Squeezebox Duet. It's quite interesting that because the FLAC files are better quality, that emotionally I feel I should keep it better organized!
Ipods are better for most people because they rarely crash and you don't have to reconnect with the router or the server PC when something minor goes wrong. Most people just aren't in to it that much. On the subject of sound quality; I've got both an Airport Express and a Squeezebox Duet. The latter definitely sounds better. Yes, you can control a Squeezebox with a Touch or an Iphone just as the new remote control app can control Itunes but in actual use, there are likely to be varying degrees of stability and functionality. Dogs and fish can both swim, but they're not equally good at it! -- HectorHughMunro ------------------------------------------------------------------------ HectorHughMunro's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16514 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49790 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
