Yes I agree turning on the TV just to listen to music isn't good. For that reason the touch may be worth buying. I need to look into the SqueezePlay for Windows with ASIO, DirectSound, WASAPI and WDMKS device support. The Squeezeplay version I'm using uses the default audio device so I have to set windows to use the digital out as the default. The windows mixer may be messing with the bits.
