Today my Noxon arrived. I've been keen on replacing my 200-CD changer by a MP3 network-enabled player for some time. The Noxon by Terratec has the advantage of being quite open to standards. This is quite important to me because I wanted to have the server software running on Linux. Another German company called TwonkyVision produces an UPnP server which not only runs on windows, but runs on a Mac an Linux as well. They offer a "light" version called MusicServer which is ok for small collections, but also provides a chance to test their product. The real thing called MediaServer provides mainly a lot more navigation aid and supports more formats. Just for the navigation the € 15,- is well spend. Now I only have to wait for my neighbours and kids to be away to really test the Noxon :-)
