SORRY if this topic has been beaten to death ... I currently have a Boxee Box, have 99% decided to return it and get a Touch, as my main interest is streaming 24/96 stereo audio to my Cambridge 840C CD player's external DAC inputs. The 'Box' is not quite there yet, is really designed mainly for video, etc..
Currently use APE with external 1TB NFS+ formatted drive (I am calling it a NAS, altho it's just a standard external HD) plugged into it. I can access it from my iMac and Boxee Box. Seems to me that this would work as well with the Touch. (???) from reading some older threads, and, I believe this article http://www.computeraudiophile.com/content/Logitech-Squeezebox-Touch-Review altho I am not 100% certain. Seems like the 'early' versions of the Touch required Windows formatting and only could read from directly-connected HDs, but this seems to have been taken care of in subsequent firmware revisions. Wondering also if I move my iTunes folder over to the 'NAS' if I can point to it both with the iMac and the Touch? and maybe with another (Windows) laptop, maybe even all at the same time? The other 'users' would likely only want mp3 files streamed to their computers on occasion. That may be best addressed in another thread and another forum tho! TIA for comments, etc.. - Rick. -- Rick58 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rick58's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42940 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84709 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
