Here is the “official” word from Sima… “Hitch is totally compliant with all Digital Rights Management systems. With songs and videos purchased at iTunes, Hitch transfers the files in the same way as ‘Non-iTune’ files. It will not automatically play the iTune file like it will with normal files. To activate the iTune file, the receiving unit simply has to…

That’s what I want to know, Jake—what exactly does “DRM-complaint” mean in this case?

Anyone have any recommendations when it comes to digital music players with onboard hard drives?  I want to get up to date with my home audio, and with the iWorld that seems to be taking over, digital music is the new direction. iPods and other portables are practical, but quality and/or capacity usually is compprimised. Does anyone have any impressions/suggestions…

does this work on music/vids purchased on the itunes store?

I see that Mr Clayton has the escient server devices. does anyone know how they compare with a similar device, the Olive Musica ( www.olive.us ) I think they interface with PDA’s and iTunes. Anyone have any opinions?

I hope no one really reads this and determines this to be “professional”.  I am a 31 year tech and the holes in this are amazing.  One: $800 labor?!  Great, now customers will think this is about the “norm” for a “professional” installation.  So, they are telling me this installation and setup took one day?  Two: It is stated that…

Sanyo Z4 Oppo 971h Denon 2106 SVS SBS-01 with PB10 subwoofer Phenominal system all together.  It constantly wows friends and niehbors so much so I am…

I have to second the comment of the above. I originally was hoping to get into a theater for not too much dough. Went to a couple of places where the entry fee for a HT system with a projector was somewhere between 15-20K. I was dismayed. I then stumbled onto a couple of forums where I quickly figure out…

Interesting. My HT system cost well under $2500 and to me appears to be as good or better than the $25000 Runco systems at HT outlets. Optoma HD70, Onkyo HTS790, Oppo HD971 and Behr “silverscreen”. For HD signals, I use my Dish HD reciever. For the general public I highly doubt the extra cost is worth the minimal if any…

Man, 11k and all you got are BOSE speakers? what a waste!
