There were questions about the usefulness of the USB input over in the upgrades thread. I do not have Sooloos but used my iPod to play downloads in my systems.

I never bothered to investigate the BBC iPlayer before. This allows one to listen to radio programmes for a week after they were broadcast. BBC Radio 3 has good sound quality and so now I can use the iPlayer through my system via USB with very good results. The only drawback is that my internet connection fails during periods of peak demand (I can tell when the children come home from school and switch on their computers): I live in a semi-rural area.

I can also now play hi res downloads through my system via USB. I realise that this will seem quaint to those who have long enjoyed a Sooloos system!
