Thumbs up Roku Soundbridge, Anyone else have one?

Man, I love this thing. It wasn't uber expensive as my receiver is about 10 years old as are my speakers, so i didn't want to spend a ton of $$ on a way to get music from my computer to my home stereo.

I have a lot of digital music, and this works perfectly for what I want. If you are looking for a cheaper alternative, I'd reccomend the Soundbridge.

So is it a USB out to RCAs? What did you need to do to get it to work? Just plug+play?

I"ve got one. Works well and is not expensive but sound quality is not as good as CD"s. They must be popular as most places were sold out of them when I purchased mine.

It does have a cat5 cable hook up, but I have it set up to run over my wireless home network, which honestly, took about 2 minutes.

You can connect it to the receiver a couple of different ways. I am using a Toslink optical cable.

edited, Venitian, I got mine from the Roku website for $179. It sounds good to enough to my ears, and works great as background music for a party. Turn it on and let it go, no switching cd's, etc.
