Another nice feature for dbpoweramp is the Multi-encode functionality.
It allows you to rip discs in multiple formats if desired all in one
process. I rip my CDs to FLAC for the Squeezeserver and also rip to
MP3 for iPod/portable use.

Touch's USB has limitations over the full SBS server on a computer. USB
usage can also be hit miss on reliability. Best to use a self powered

be way overkill on processing power to run SBS.

Search this message board for the USB hard drive issue. There are
problems with many drives, which turn off automatically after a period
