Squeezebox's audio out is not audiophile quality, hence prod

You can do this pretty much with any small form factor pc. You could
slap together a small silent PC with rapsberry pi with digital audio out
via USB sound for probably <$100. You could run linux and

Took a quick look at the new Radio, and it looks to have only an
minijack in and no digital out. Will there really be nothing to take
the place of a SB with a digital out and optical/coax inputs?
