Hi,
The main thing about Bluesound is the disastrous software.
Everybody rants and raves about it saying it is the best software they ever used.
I assume reviewers stating this only tested manufacturer released software and not "third party" software.
Just to mention the ridiculous things about Bluesound software/hardware : it is not DLNA/UPnP aware so you have to enter the IP address of your NAS manually.
I can do that as I am skilled enough (OK, it basic requirements) but people that have no clue (i.e. my brother in law) won't be able to use it on it's own !
And what ? A software that reindexes the whole library each time you add a new track or album, taking sometimes up to minutes to do so ?
Come on, no one does that... Emby, BubbleUPnP and Symfonium (to name a few that are FREE)) are doing some incremental indexation...
Then : no way to sort albums by "Album Artist".
Only by "Artist".
Fine...
What about people like me who own 35 versions of Beethoven's Piano concertos and would like ot have them all uner "Beethoven" and not uner "Conductor/Soloist" ?
Should I mention that albums are sorted alphabetically and no way to sort them by date ?
Sure... Who wants taht anyways. Let's skip it...
All those things are ridiculous... My Bluesound has sit in my rig for exactly 12 hours and 30 minutes before it went to ad site...
All in all, given the poor hardware and the poor software, I think the device should not be sold for more than 250€...
But comparing it to the Eversolo is, I think, comparing a device that offers nice value for money to a totally overpriced and overrated device.
