Is the new Apple TV better than Squeezebox?

Anyone tried Qsonics or Bitperfect? From the reviews in the British press, they seem to be more user-friendly. Haven't seen or heard them myself and if I want one, I would need to specially order it.

I have Apple TVs and a Squeezebox. Both work well. Wouldn't give either the edge sonically

Horseface, did you manage to try the Mac Mini? If you have, is it better than the Transporter/Duet in terms of sound quality? I am in the midst of deciding between a Squeezebox Touch and Mac Mini to get into computer audio playing iTunes after doing some research here.

From what I was told the Apple TV is not a very good product when compared to the Squeezebox and Mac Mini due to high levels of jitter, and for the fact that it streams wireless music from various sources(wireless degrades sound quality although is extremely convenient).
