New Squeezebox Touch

[MartinT]

Well, I spose the Touch is a start. It’s a bit like watching vinyl novices setting up their first turntables.

LOL - it's nice being a noob because you see the other side

What exactly is a "blemished box"? Could be a good buy - or maybe not!

I had rather a nice vinyl setup once Martin. I can't say I miss it.
I reckon you should get sorted pretty quick.
The touch is a great bit of kit but if you find you like file based audio, I dare say it wont be long before you've built a really good quality server. You should have the building skills and I really can't see a bit of scripting and a few code changes being beyond your knowledge.
Like all this stuff,it depends on how much effort one is prepared to put into it.

Some screenshots of it all working:

I see your numbered naming convention for players allows for more devices, Martin . One Squeezebox is never enough . . .

LOL - you noticed that? I may fancy another one in the bedroom at some point.

Have you tried Spotify yet? Will definitely help Album Club having it on your main rig.

I now have a Spotify Premium account and am streaming hi-bitrate to the Touch (it did crash and reboot after I upgraded to Premium and changed the settings, but has now settled down).

It's amazing sitting down in front of the 'big rig' with the iPad on my lap and being able to call up almost anything on Spotify, like having John Peel's library in my hands. This will help me target my buying even more accurately and only order CDs I know I like.

Doing that right now using ipod touch. Listening to Neil Young Harvest remaster and it sounds very good.
