I just bought a Logitech Squeezebox Duet, for this very thing- getting fed up with so many cd-rs about the place.

I have to say that although it was a bit fiddly to set up, it works fantastically- and at the price is extremely good value. It's absolutely ideal for listening to downloads and tape and vinyl transfers via a NAS/external drive, when you want serious audio performance as opposed to naff PC audio reproduction.

I am now considering getting a Cambridge Audio DAC Magic to go with it, to upgrade the digi analogue converter performance.
