You may remember LiENUS from previous chapters such as “I faked DreamGen”, however his other project Dreamamp is quite real. One of the main features of Dreamamp will be the ability to swap in an MP3 disk, which is a major shortcoming of DCMP3. He is also working on BBA support which will more or less blow DCMP3 out of the water. The ability to stream MP3’s from your local ethernet is very promising feature. Don’t expect too much with the early releases, but this is something to really look out for in the coming months. If you have a BBA, or a serial cable you can check it out now. Along with full source code he has compiled .bin, .elf, and .srec in the file, so their is no need to have a full dev enviroment setup.
Also be sure to check out the “always current” readme file he has posted to keep up to date on the project.
