Loudness War

Yep, confirmed. They've been Loudness War mastered, or 'Mastered for iTunes' if you like.

Re: 500MB hard disk eh?

The Mac Mini's come with a HDMI to DVI adaptor in the box - http://www.apple.com/uk/mac-mini/specs.html

It's pointless for the UK market

As with all Apple things, they seem to fixate on the US market and Apple UK obviously don't have any way of pushing stuff we like over here. So it'll be an Apple iTV with Netflix and iTunes vs a SmartTV with iPlayer, 4OD, Lovefilm, Netflix, DLNA etc.. etc..

I have an Apple TV 2 and it's OK - but it desperately needs the proper UK TV catchup services to be a big seller in the UK and with Apple it's unlikely to ever happen.

Re: Cable Cuts

The phrase that pays is 'Assured Seperacy' - and talking nicely to the Openreach planners when they come to do the surveys.

I think the IT director of DSG will probably be looking at a P45 tomorrow as the amount of money they'll have lost will have dwarfed the amount they would have paid for a proper diverse internet link.

And why don't they have a load balanced Business Continuity hosting site elsewhere in a data centre in case this happens?

Looks nice

But if you want a proper airplay solution, surely a nice set of small Monitor Audio speakers, even a basic Cambridge Audio amp and an Airport Express as the Airplay device would sound 1000% better than any of these one box solutions on test, and potentially cost around the same?
