    Best solution for sending mp3s ans streaming radio to my ht?

    The htpc is what I originally thought of but I'm not sure I want to tie up a pc. The airport would be fine if I can use other radio stations instead of itunes.

    Hard drive recording ability without monthly service fee?

    Does anyone make a dvr hard disc recorder that doesn't require a monthly service? I really hate the idea of having to shell out $12.99 a month. It seems every box you buy these days requieres a service. It's not that it's expensive it's that when you amass alot of these it does add up.
