Serious music lovers or audiophiles would definitely be pleased by the new digital music servers. It can function as a jukebox for digital music files and a hard drive to store the files. Although PCs and iPods are essentially the same thing, they fail in comparison with the digital music server.

PC sounds tend to cut the high and low frequencies while the noise generated by its own circuitry is also reproduced.

Of course, the better sound will come with a price.
