I think it depends on your media. A lot of network streamers will do file based, but it sounds like you still have a lot of CDs. Do you play SACD/DVDA too? If so (and you have the money), consider the MSB Universal Media Transport and one of their DACs: http://www.msbtech.com/products/platinumHome.php
That said, I enjoy my PWD + Bridge immensely. I listen to a lot of high resolution FLAC files downloaded from HD Tracks and Linn and think it does a great job for the money. About the only thing I would consider replacing it with at this point is if I found a smoking deal on a Linn Klimax DS.
