The Duet is not any better then when it was introduced. You have to be in close proximity of the receiver to get a steady stream of audio. "Buffering" issues are common i.e. songs pause while the stream catches up. If a microwave is 30 ft within the receiver the signal is interrupted when the microwave is on. Not necessarily a Logitech issue but an issue nevertheless. Battery life on the Duet controller is poor. Charges dont last more than 24 hours and get worse the life of the product. Replacement batteries cost $30 dollars! The controller has a short life expectancy (mine died within 2 years of light use.) Creating playlists with the duet on the controller is impossible. Users should be somewhat tech savvy to use with any success. The plugin's dont really work well and I recommend you not install any to increase the chances of success/enjoyment. Setup is not plug and play. Not all routers work well with the system. Navigation i.e. the iPod like "wheel" is horrible especially if you have 1000's of records to wade thru. Fonts are small and hard to read if you are older. The list goes on....
In short the Squeezebox Duet was/is a disaster BUT I muddle with it mainly because I listen to vinyl 95% of the time.
The Touch, with my Duet experiences - I would never buy - and have to agree with the previous poster that Logitech drove Slim Devices into the ground.
