The main performance bottleneck would be collecting and storing the meta information. I had some bad experience with network players (terratec) that attempted to scan (network-) folders collect meta data AND play music all rolled into one box; it wasn't good at either. I really like slimdevices approach of devided labour that a media player should "dumb" in a way that is should be stellar at playing audio but not much anything else. Leave the meta storage to a silly storage server, NAS or otherwise. The Touch seems to throw this design a bit overboard. -- th00ht Squeezebox Classis Squeezebox Touch Squeezebox Server 7.6.0 - 31827 / Arch64 Quad 303 + Two Quad Electrostats 'last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/th00ht) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ th00ht's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15656 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85472 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
