VOX looks really interesting.  UPLOADING!

Thanks @The Computer Audiophile.

Well, this sounds like a great deal; however, I'm seeing some teething pains :/

 

I started to upload my ALAC (iTunes-based, but stored on a local NAS) collection overnight, and so far, it's only uploaded 185 (of 120,000) tracks - the service seems to be responding VERY slowly and is consuming almost 150% of CPU on my Mac Mini.

 

Also, the Vox player is timing out trying to load the few albums (I'm assuming) that have been uploaded already (gateway error or the like), so I can't even use / listen to what has apparently been uploaded.

 

Given I have 300Mb Internet that seems to be working well for other purposes, I have to think they've got some resource contention, etc., issues going on on their end - hope that clears up soon.

is it 300mb both directions?  Usually upload is a LOT slower.  on Cable services anyway.
