The problem you are having with your pc is probably software related. If you reinstall the OS that will probably fix the problem. Also, I tried jriver and found it wasn't the most stable program. I think Amarra now has a PC version, as well. If you use good hardware and set it up right, SQ should be comparable to a Mac.
Jplay vs Amarra, PC vs. Mac
So...I find myself with a dying a laptop that bluescreens when playing Jplay in hibernate mode. Now that I've heard this degree of clarity from digital audio, I can't really go back. I'm interested in hearing if anyone has been able to compare Jplay to Amarra or the other Mac audiophile proggies.
My big issue with Mac is that I have PC desktop, on which most of my music is stored. I am not a huge fan of iTunes either, particularly as it doesn't support FLAC and most of my music is in FLAC. I could get a server, but this seems like overkill, or alternately an external USB drive.
