I can't really answer the question based on personal knowledge. Hopefully someone else can chime in. I have a touch, but use my SbS to stream to it. I can say I set up a Touch for my brother and he uses the tinySC. He has a 500GB harddrive attached to it and has about 54,000 mp3 files and it works perfectly for him. you might search for IPHONE posts on this topic. I recall he had a beta touch and used the internal server for a very large FLAC library. edit: and I understand that much of the buffering, etc. was with hi-rez files. -- garym ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79896 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
