RE: Re: AudioTron on sale at Laser in UK

Martyn,

The Rio _does_ support WMA.

More information on http://jreceiver.sourceforge.net/rio/jrec-faq-rio.html

I'm not trying to steer you down the Rio route - all three of the common pl= ayers (Rio/DDAR, Audiotron, SliMP3) have their own advantages, and there ar= e going to be more competitors on the market in the next 12 months... and n= ew versions of the existing ones.

Regards,

Mark

I'm tempted by an Audiotron too, I've been waiting for them to become easil= y
available to the UK.  However I think that the =A3349 price point is w= ay OTT
bearing in mind that they're $299 or less in the US.  I did find a Eur= opean
distributor at http://www.inte= rnettuner.eu.com/ that's listing them for 399
Euros (about =A3250ish) which is a little more acceptable (although they've=
not got any at the moment, and I'm not sure of the shipping / VAT
implications etc).

I've shied away from both the Rios and Slimp3s as neither support WMA, whic= h
90% of my music is ripped to.

I think for now I'll stick with my home grown solution of an old laptop wit= h
a busted screen hidden away behind my hi-fi rack, remote controlled by a Fuji.....it works pretty well, but ultimately I'd love to have something more hi-fi integrated.

Martyn
