The built-in DAC (digital to analogue converter) is very good, or you can use an external DAC. The Touch has superb sound quality, being bit-perfect up to 24/96. Another neat feature is the Flickr app, which displays random or tagged photos from Flickr while your music plays. The Touch is the first player to have a colour screen with touch control, though like many users I don’t see a lot of value in the touch aspect. Internet radio comes for free and works very well.
