Hoya, the thought of taking all my CDs and converting them in any way fills me with dread.

there are services that will do this conversion for you, for about $1/CD. you mail them the CDs in pre-paid envelopes/boxes, they send them back to you along with data DVDs containing the MP3s, you choose the bitrate (some even do lossless formats).

Kosmo…I've had a chumby since last year and enjoy it. I don't use the radio feature much, though, because if I listen to internet radio I usually use itunes since I have 3 Airport Expresses around the apt streaming from itunes (one on a tivoli radio, one on an old boombox, and one in the main stereo). I wrote a little flash program for the chumby that displays the current song that's playing in itunes.

OscarTheWilde…if you go with one of these streaming services and have a wifi network, you can use AirFoil to stream any sound from your computer to an airport express, which will just plug into your stereo via RCA plugs. I use this to stream MLB games since I don't get very good AM reception in my apartment.

You should really see a doctor for that. I hear anything lasting over 4 hours is hella dangerous.

No, this way I'm ready whenever she is. Then we both sit in bathtubs and watch the sunset.

Longshot that any of you are still around from the late 90s when I used to post on this board incessantly, but are you? Nathan? Maddy? Marty?
