Unnecessary if you're using the Rpi just for Music Streaming. But the upside is that it will make the Rpi Model 4 more available at its suggested price.

I noticed that they have 25 plus Rpi Model 4s in stock at my Micro Center Store with 1 GB of memory for $35 apiece. These were almost impossible to find a year or two ago.

works like a charm. Wirelessly as well.

That's not a bad price for a RPi5 with 8GB. I paid more a couple months ago. My streamers are Raspberry Pi4 based but I got the decked out RPi5 in case I want to use it for something other than music.
