Well they told me in hughes today that it has to be stored on the PC?

I usually read a manual before buying a product to see what the capabilities are. According to Arcam you should be able to use the rwave transmitter as an output device on a computer.

It looks like the person at the shop didn't know what he was talking about.

thanks - fair comment on the manual...it is a bit confusing sometimes especially when they dont refer to spotify directly and when that is the one reason I am buying it

thanks John

It's no issue really, any audio from the PC will be streamed to the rCube with the dongle. Enjoy!

It wasn't meant as criticism. I have found the internet really helpful when deciding what to buy or not when it comes to features. And reading a manual usually answers all my questions. It may be a bit obsessive but I usually know more about a product than the shop assistant.

I agree that sometimes it is difficult to make a connection between functionality you look for and whether it fits with the kit you already have.
