The SB Touch is a good match for audiophiles as well. Just use a good
external DAC and it can compete with the high end systems at a
significant lower cost.
The user experience of the Squeezebox system is one of the best out
there. Once you used it there is no good alternative available.

I don't think so. These units are more geared for the audiophile wanting
a component style piece in their system.

It seems people are expressing concern with the future of the product

Even then I don't think they have it quite right. I'll bet 90 is simply
North America, not just Canada, as many US based retailers carry that
model. Or maybe even just point of entry listing.
UK showing that model is likely a typo or someone misread the P/N
listing or they may well share stock

as stated in the earlier post - there is no difference in features ,and
certainly no upgrade to the original/standard touch model. I doubt you
will find a review of the "new" model number as there is nothing
different and hence no need for a fresh review.
by the way - where did you see the touch
Just google Logitech 930-90, I get tons of hits including Amazon and
OverStock.com. My Touch is 930-40, it's the same player as
930-90, just different production runs.
Any/all reviews of the Touch will suffice, it's the same thing,
disregard the model # and just enjoy the music. ;)

Couldn't agree more
I've been a Squeezebox user for almost 10 years, dating back to the
original SliMP3. I currently have a Touch, a SB3, a Radio and a
Controller.
While I really like them and think they are a great music source, if
Logitech discontinued them tomorrow, I'd certainly give them a moment

There's no way of actually knowing the answer. Logitech has never really

lack of this is not really a sign of anything.
