Whole thing reads like an advertisement for a company's super-expensive speakers and equipment, and ends with a note that they have a new super-expensive iPod dock.

Articles I used read about B&O products were always rated as mediocre by audiophiles. Basically looks good but sound was nothing special.

This article is way to long and seems to contain nothing of note, other than history of B&O.

Oh, Wired... This article does not cover audio files at all, and there's a single passing mention of MP3 players. It's a rambling history of a company that markets to the "audiophile" gadget crowd. Reads like straight PR.
