Review summary The Squeezebox does a great job of streaming digital audio--as long as it's not copy-protected music. If you can overlook its sometimes flaky performance issues, the Netgear MP101 delivers wireless digital music at a great price. The Linksys WMLS11B streams your digital music to any room in the house, but you'll want to use your own speakers. Striking looks, easy setup, and great file compatibility make the Roku SoundBridge M1001 a solid option for streaming digital audio and Internet radio to your home stereo. The Omnifi DMS1 combines superior wireless stability with solid support for online audio services--except iTunes.
