I keep reading threads like this and never see much of anything devoted to the way computer audio SOUNDS. In my experience, listening to four systems where it was possible to compare music-from-CD to music-from-server, there was never any question in my mind as to which sounded better.
Of course there's the convenience factor and I'm sure it would be real convenient to rip my 1100+ CDs and SACDs (what, you can't rip SACDs? Who knew?), but I'd just as soon spend the time in some old-fashioned, retro way.
Besides, I spend most listening time with vinyl and open reel tape, so I'm a hopeless case anyway :-)
