This thread reminds me of just why I am in a dither about the whole business of streaming and storing.
I would pay good money to someone who could suggest a solution to fulfil my needs. and I wouldn't mind spending twice the above if it was solid, simple, flexible, reliable, and with a good interface.
All I have seen for a couple of years is people buying stuff and not happy, trying to get it to work, buying something else to make it work, and seemingly delighted to have got something to work at least fulfilling their wants a bit.
