: Thanks a lot for the detailed info.
: So what format do you use when ripping CDs with the Azur?

PCM 16/44.1 I want audiophile quality not an MP3 player
;-) BUT it will store CDs as PCM and then afterwards will
do background compression when it is in standby mode to save
time. Nifty little idea I thought ;-)

: Would you say it is more convenient to rip a large
collection of CDs
: with the Azur or with a PC?

With the Azur as it finds *all* the info off the net (well
99.8% of the time). BTW It will also play Net Radio as well
;-)

Before you rush out and buy one demo it first and then I
will tell you some of the bad points that I don't like about
it :-(

A new small Hitachi hifi (lofi really) with stereo speakers and a bass
unit has a USB port and even a CD card slot. It costs about 100
dollars, so don't expect too much, but it's fine for the kids. ANd you
can plug in a HD with USB or a SD card as an external music source.
Or e.g the JVC UXGD7
