new updates in transports or are they obsolete ?

Look for a White-Paper that I wrote on positive-feedback.com that explains why computer driven audio done well will always beat a conventional transport. Why waste good money on a transport?

both teejay and audioengr offer valid points...

has anyone done a comparison between a computer and a high end transport ?( forgive me if this question has been asked before)

Hi,
There are at least 2 companies out there with storage solutions and I predict that more will come. Kalaidascape is a (very expensive) uncompressed storage system for DVD's. They are also working on a music server. One of the keys is the ability to store uncompressed data with a lossless system. It will be very interesting in the enxt couple of years.

I have written about my own comparisons between transports (dedicated and CD player) and my hard drive based system before on other threads here. In short, I no longer have a CD player and all my CD's are now in my attic.

i have to confess... the idea of dropping my cd collection in ONE place and have the ability to pull up a cd and make a playlist is pretty tempting....

what are the pro and cons of hard drive based storage/transport apple system ( i am a mac guy)...

thanks,

mike
