Anyone using their Roku 3 for streaming audio (local content, not internet streaming)? How good is it at doing so? Which apps on Roku 3 specifically do you use for local audio content streaming? Plex? Something else? How easy is the navigation through your library, playback, etc?
I currently have a standalone digital audio player (Squeezebox) that is simple enough and supports variety of audio formats.
Roku 3 would be appealing if it could do what the Squeezebox does plus stream video, which I know it does very well. Roku 3 has some gaps when it comes to certain audio formats support (example: no Ogg Vorbis), but if that is the only gap, then I can live with it since very little of my content is in this particular format. Apparently the current Roku 3 firmware does support FLAC.
I can certainly keep the Squeezebox even if I get Roku 3, but was just wondering if I'd be able to completely retire the Squeezebox if I do get Roku 3.
Thanks!
