Sonos, Multizone Digital Music System

"In the old days, a typical music collection consisted of hundreds of round plastic platters stored in individual paper sleeves housed on shelves or in milk crates. Today a collection can reside on a hard disk where every song is quickly accessible. And this kind of music library doesn't need a disc player — just the software and the network connections to let you play your music wherever and whenever you want it.

Sonos lets you do just that. It's a serious music system that supports high-fidelity sound when used with good speakers and high-bit-rate files. I was thoroughly impressed with its performance and usability. This is a terrific example of how far music can go once it's digitized."
