Our microwave disrupts the signal from the router downstairs to our laptop upstairs - kicks it offline immediately until it is finished. Then the laptop magically works online again...

When you say end of live, does that mean all their streaming devices? I just got the Touch, and it's been working very well.

Explains why I got my 2 Squeezebox Radios for $100 @ Xmas.
 I find them useful. Hopefully I can use them for the indefinite future with Spotify and Pandora. Tom, for streaming, I tend not to use my AVR. I use my AppleTV, Roku or Tivo, since those have much better GUIs to navigate. I don't normally listen to my own content, I just stream so Pandora and Spotify are sufficient. The Airport Express is a good option too. Airfoil works well with it. |

I have been streaming FLAC through my 3808 since I purchased it. I initially used a Linksys NAS that worked great for a few years then the controller died on it. I was able to pull all the files off the hard drives at which time I had set up a DNS 323 as my server. I hacked it as per the many sites and ran Twonky server on it, as it turns out this was what the Linksys had used as its server program. I have just recently set up an old PC with WHS 2011 and am presently looking for an add-in to use to stream my FLAC files from it. Although I am not really needing it as my iTunes library is offered up to play with no problems, but the audio snob in me keeps me looking for a nice add-in, JRiver looks to be a good candidate so far although I haven't looked to see if it will run on WHS.
