Squeezebox Boom v Touch

Tried to use the 'compare' option on Logitech website but it didn't work so other than the display/touch screen on the Touch how else do they stack up against each other given that the price difference is negligible?

Thanks

The boom has speakers attached, and needs a seperate NAS or PC somewhere on the network running squeezecentre to work. The Touch needs a seperate Amp and speakers, but has a mini version of Squeezecentre built in so you can attach a USB hard disk containing music directly to it.

No. In fact the Boom and Touch could not be more different, they are very devices for different uses (within the digital music realm obviously).
