I switched to computer hard drives about 5 years ago and am thrilled with the results. The key for me was using an Empirical Offramp turbo 2 ( or Freeway 2).We are on the cusp of several new sampleing rates, many hi rez downloads, and free upsampler's. For 1k for the computer, $700 for the Freeway, and a couple hundred for a monitor, you are ready to play music now and future proof(almost) for later. Like to record your vinyl at 24/96, burn cd's for your car, transfer music to a second system, all no problem. We don't have to be limited to 16/44 anymore. Have fun!
