Doug........That is not correct. As I understood the Aurender director's comments, the Aurender Content Server's primary design concept was to be a completely stand alone music server that requires no computer in order to provide music as a source component. It has internal hard drive storage and SSD cache, while providing an onboard transport for ripping files to the hard drive. The Aurender Content Server is a stand alone music server. I am pleased to see Aurender use a conventional transport in the ACS rather than a slot loading transport. This would be a well received product once it is officially introduced.
