Terry, if you abhor iTunes, I don't think you should use a Mac. Likewise, I don't think iTunes is all that friendly with FLAC.
Thanks Tom!
I do hate iTunes (the store and software) but I'm glad that it pumps money into Apple. I
am partial to the OSX operating system. Windows has always been a pain to me.
I'm hearing that Win7 is a lot more stable and workable, so...
Just took a look at the Sonos. Nice. I do like the idea of using an iPad for the HUI. Star Trek-y!
And yes, I will go hungry to put $ into music!
Now gonna go check out Media Monkey.
I really appreciate all the input Axiomites. I probably should have checked older post for these ideas, but I think the technology has been changing so fast that I'm pretty certain this newer thread could help others who are contemplating setting up a server based music system in 2011.
We are living in the future
now!
