RE: nasty bucket of poo

I think you're a little confused. I never 'stream'. And I'm connected to the internet ONLY if I'm downloading a hi-res album, and then I disconnect. 90% of my content was ripped from CD myself, some from vinyl.

One of the huge benefits of computer audio is the ability to intuitively and rapidly navigate your entire music library and choose albums, artists or songs for instant playback.... either at the computer, or remotely with a tablet like an iPad. Sure there's some up front effort in ripping the CDs but you do it once then you're done. I ripped my favorites first and then the others.

Of course if your library consists of just a couple CDs or records that you play over and over, this may not be viewed as important. But for those of us with hundreds or thousands of albums it's fantastic.

Try that with a Tascam.

Instant access to my entire music library w/o the clutter of CDs or LPs. Local access at the computer, or remote
control with the iPad at my side. And excellent sonics to boot.
