RE: Since I'm an IT guy

I was most likely being too dramatic about the problems associated with computer audio.

In general my Apple platform is quite stable. Rarely do I have issues. Perhaps once a year I have to update my DAC software. Other minor maintenance issues are required as well. iTunes likes to lock a bit more often than I like but a restart solves the problem.

Having said that I still do believe it is all just a bit too tweaky down loading hi-rez files in particular. No thanks. For some this will of no issue others will feel otherwise. Similar to vinyl in some respect. If one has never played with vinyl before I can see how that might be intimidating. I grew up with it so it does not seem to be a challenge for me.

I have found those that have the highest comfort factor with computer audio have a desire or a greater than average knowledge of computers. I personally don't care to mess with computers the reason I went with Apple.

Don't see ever ripping the vinyl collection to the computer. That is much too tedious a task CDs are no big deal to rip to the computer. It would be more convenient in some situations but I can always use Tidal.
