We saw the Phatbox at the mp3 summit; it's not in production yet, but I would say it's only about 4 months from shipping (though I didn't get to see the insides of the unit - the casings were almost there, though there's no shock mounting of the HDDs and no ram caching of audio on playback yet either).

It deals with the 10CDs x 99tracks by having multiple discs (eg, disc 1 will refer to 2 discs, whose CD-TEXT info comes up differently). It's all a bit of a kludge, but that's the problem with CD-busses. Still, it's cheap (though I find it hard to believe they'll actually ship at $499 - more likely $599 or above when product starts to ship if you ask me) and a good first step for people not famiiar with mp3s.
