Pros: From a the price point, you will be hard to find a better device. Ability to view album art, support all major compressed and lossless file formats, USB and storage card support for the internal server software (may run sort slower than a seperate computer server)

Cons: None, this unit can run its own built-in server software so no need for a computer

I have used three different models of the squeezebox line and each have been nothing but a pleasent suprise to own. The quality of the Touch is on par with all the other units and the performace is un match at this price point.
