I wonder if this thing is like a lot of airplay devices where it creates its own wifi network you could connect to and get into a web page. I wonder if this one would be better sounding than something like the Klipsch IGroove or whatever it's called that I'm thinking about getting one day? ---

I hate this. This is what the cloud based one called dar.fm does also. Even if it is a talk show you get around 15 minutes a file, but it seems that they put some of the previous one in the next file so you end up fastforwarding about 2 minutes. It did that last week with one show. - Origi

Back when I used mine, I used it with a JBL On Tour speaker than ran on tripple a's. I don't think they make that thing any more, but there are probably others like it. It also came with a wall plug you could optionally use if you didn't want to deal with recharging tripple A's. - Original

I heard that Apple made their lossless format open source. I'm not sure why they would do that or what makes it better or different than the rest besides it locked you in when it wasn't open source. I'm not sure if anyone made tools yet using it though if one doesn't use Itunes. - Original

I don't think you can keep only the vocals at all unless you had the original project and had everything in separate tracks. Once I thought I found something that claims to eliminate or isolate just the guitar track in any song you throw at it, but I'm not sure that can be done either. - O

I don't know that they'd have software to add a sound driver to use the network to stream to it. I'd say it's probably for getting stuff from the computer or Internet, but you'd probably have to use their menus and the like to do it, sort of like what TV's are doing now where you can watch stuf
