For years I have been slowly building up a multi-zone audio system in my home. The first system I had was based off of my Yamaha AV receiver that had a second zone output, to which I used to feed speakers in my garage. Later on I expanded that to also feed audio into my kitchen/living room area,...

That’s what MS wants you to believe and while technically it is true I suppose, I don’t think anyone in their right mind would pay out $30k to fill an iPod. I am an MS fan though so I must say that it is nice to see them hitting back at Apple where they can: Price. I’ve...

I still can’t figure out why so many people use iTunes to get their music fix. After installing it to manage the Entertainment 2.0 I found the interface clunky, slow, and just a pain to navigate. Add to this the fact that Apple charges a premium for DRM free content and I’ll never...
