This holiday season, Olive is sponsoring a great giveaway for you, the Olive Opus 4 Hi-Fi Music Server. Valued at $1,499, the Opus 4 provides the ultimate in sound quality (compared to MP3 players and iPods), storage capacity, design and user friendliness.
Olive has incorporated all the functionality you need into its music server, and eliminated the need for a PC. Allowing you to store your music, manage your collection and even burn CDs all on one device.
Setting up your Opus is as simple as connecting a standard CD Player. To transfer your music, just insert your CD, tap import on the touchscreen and a few minutes later your music is appropriately tagged and neatly categorized in your Opus library.
Unlike MP3s and iTunes, which compress songs to fit on portable players by eliminating musical information, the Opus 4 uses "lossless" FLAC encoding for CD transfer, preserving the artist's work in full CD-quality, with all its subtleties and nuances—ideal for playing on your home audio stereo system.
Some of the features of Opus 4 Hi-Fi Music Server include:
- Holds up to 1,500 CDs in original quality on its 500GB storage drive
- A 4.3" high-resolution wide-screen color display with touch-screen functionality. Enjoy the artwork from your albums in brilliant colors, and easily find your music with the color-coded navigation
- Multi-room music streaming and the ability to import music from a computer (wired or wireless) allow easy access to all your digital music sources in every room of your home
- Fine-grade aluminum and distinctive graphics provide an elegant design, available in silver or black (your choice for the giveaway)
For more information on the Opus 4 Hi-Fi Music Server, visit Olive.com.

Ready to win
From Andrew Gordon on November 13, 2009 :: 5:30 pm

Really Nice prize could sure use it
From Michael Smith on November 13, 2009 :: 6:04 pm
I have enjoyed music for over 50 years from 45s to 8-track to cassette to CD to the present. Always looking for the best performance
From Joe on November 13, 2009 :: 6:04 pm
My equipment is older than I am. I deserve something better than a stick and a log for an audio system.
From Marilyn Wons on November 13, 2009 :: 6:15 pm
I deserve to be the winner of the Olive Opus Hi-Fi Music Server because my life revolves around music. I started listening to music when I was three on my litte record player with the yellow plastic records. That was in the early 1950’s. In the 1960’s I had a transistor radio that I had on under my pillow at night. In the late sixties and early 1970’s I fell in love with Hard Rock and attended so many live functions where those wonderful bands played. Through the remaining decades I continued to enjoy the current music. This Music Server would just make all my music that much better. thank you

Our son has a deep love of music, and thinks they should bring back big band, Something like this would make our Christmas Merry after a difficult year.

From Tari L on November 14, 2009 :: 8:44 am

From Ron Miller on November 14, 2009 :: 9:21 am

From Anson Young on November 14, 2009 :: 10:28 am

From Rick J Bryant on November 14, 2009 :: 12:05 pm
Lots of other people deserve this, clearly. But I will add my desire to the list. I am an artist. I am constantly having to interrupt my work flow by having to get up and pick and load new CD’s to listen to while I work. So tired of doing that.

From Katherine D. on November 14, 2009 :: 1:42 pm
Reading all these comments, a lot of folks would benefit from this. In terms of why I deserve this gorgeous Opus hi fi server…I came across this looking for a solution in my home, which right now has a turntable, radio, cassette player, 90 cassettes, 2 iphones, 1 ipod and a Zune. I am seriously floundering. I’d like to get rid of all these things (well, not the phones!) and replace them with the Opus.
From Carol on November 14, 2009 :: 2:45 pm
I deserve to win for several reasons: #1, I play the organ/ piano professionally and would put this to great use in my career and with my students, and #2, my daughter is a Jazz Vocal Performance major and I think she would totally flip for this!

I am not worthy of such a wonderful prize, but I want it. Please accept my entry. Thank you.
From heidi bokor on November 18, 2009 :: 4:44 pm
I deserve to win this because I REALLY want to win something big for a chance!!! In all honesty, everyone here wants to win it and that includes me. No one person deserves it more than the others. It is just going to be the luck of the draw really. And there are going to be some people who make up a sad story about their lives for the sympathy vote (just my opinion). It’s a great, expensive giveaway that would be a great addition to anyone’s home. Thanks for the giveaway.
From Mary Scohera on November 18, 2009 :: 5:15 pm

From Jimbo on November 19, 2009 :: 11:41 am
Dudes,
I need that music server because I’m unemployed, and now spend a lot of time listening to tunes, except my current rig is a half-broken ipod with lousy earphones. I need to upgrade my tuneage!
Hit me up, yo!
-Jimbo
From andy on November 19, 2009 :: 11:49 am
i just bought a house and this would be PERFECT to hear my music collection throughout the house
From Paul Conrow on November 19, 2009 :: 11:52 am
I have resisted purchasing an MP3 player or an Ipod for myself because I am not impressed with ANY on the market. This player DOES interest me! Winning this player would be OUTSTANDING!!!
From Brian Banks on November 19, 2009 :: 11:57 am
This would be a great gift for my wife for christmas! Especially since her mp3 player is dying and she loves listening to music!

From John Stetson on November 19, 2009 :: 1:22 pm
This would be the perfect answer to storing all my music presently on LPs. Instead of hundreds of CDs I could transfer the records via CD to this music server.
From Samantha Gordon on November 19, 2009 :: 1:46 pm
Could really use a replacement for the stereo that broke two years ago. Managing off of a small ipod is a drag.
From Rita Orwosky on November 19, 2009 :: 1:55 pm
Just because I want it. I am old and need to have one. Thanks for the contest.
From Jodi on November 19, 2009 :: 2:34 pm
I deserve to win because I never would be able to afford something this nice for myself.

From Sheila on November 19, 2009 :: 3:20 pm
I believe I deserve to win this prize because I am a huge music fan and it would get tons of use in my house.

From Irvin Walser on November 19, 2009 :: 4:23 pm
I deserve to win because my music system is antiquated compared to everyone I know.
From Peggy on November 19, 2009 :: 4:39 pm
I think I should win this for my technically challenged husband (okay, so I’m not much better). Anyway, we need this to give our old brains a boost and our kids (ages 28,18,13,9) would love it! And, if we can’t figure it out, sure enough they will be able to!
From George on November 19, 2009 :: 4:50 pm
All my music available on one device? How cool will that be. So go right ahead and pick me.
From Kelly on November 19, 2009 :: 6:18 pm

From Dave on November 20, 2009 :: 10:20 pm
I’m sure there are far more deserving people than I hoping to win this amazing music server. I’ve never volunteered my time feeding orphans in Africa. I don’t spend my free time helping at homeless shelters. But I do love music and have an extensive CD collection. This music server would be the cat’s pajamas. Thank you for the chance to win.
From Justin Gall on November 20, 2009 :: 10:45 pm
I don’t think anything I can say will justify why I deserve to win. Regardless of all the crappy things I could whine about, I just want to win because I really want to win this. It’s pretty much awesome, and I could never afford it.
From Michael Kuntz on November 20, 2009 :: 10:46 pm
I should win this because I sent off 700 cd’s to be professionally ripped to flac and mp3. I have a ton of music that I’ve collected over 20 years. Right now it’s on my ipod or computer and having this would be awesome!

From Richard Davis on November 22, 2009 :: 9:51 am
I am old school. I remember when high fidelity stood for your goal of reproducing the highest quality sound. Now days I hear a lot of shake, rattle, and roll. This looks like a great device to truely enjoy music with.
From michael erickson on November 22, 2009 :: 11:38 am
Im soo unorganized. Please let me win this.
From Vincent Gruenbacher on November 22, 2009 :: 3:30 pm

From Donna Leezer on November 22, 2009 :: 4:42 pm
this would be great
From Tim Ruth on November 22, 2009 :: 5:59 pm
Music is my life’s lubricant. I listen to music 24 hours a day. Without music I would seize up like a combustion engine without oil. Seriously I actually would. When they tell you to turn off your electronic devices on planes I never turn off my iPod. If I did I’m quite sure my heart would stop beating. Music plays while I sleep all night and my alarm clock is of course more music.
From Shelly Miller on November 22, 2009 :: 8:46 pm
I’ve never purchased MP3’s or the like due to poor quality, this sounds like something I would invest in…. ty so much for the opportunity!
From Dan Riley on November 22, 2009 :: 8:47 pm
I deserve this, because, my wife and daughter are constantly asking me to “fix” their iPods…I am sick of it…
From Jon Beckwith on November 22, 2009 :: 9:32 pm
With over 500 CD’s and a new baby arriving soon, I need all the space I can get! I have been ripping my whole collection and have gotten cd-case carpel tunnel… ok not really, but it’s been a lot!

I don’t know if I deserve to win, but if I do win, I’ll give this item to my nephews as I did with a guitar I won in the past. Thank you for this opportunity and happy holidays to everyone!
From Carol on November 23, 2009 :: 6:00 am
Nov 23 hope I win, I come from a long line of professional musicians, and we would ALL go nuts if I won.
From Kay Fischler on November 23, 2009 :: 10:29 am
I deserve to win because music is my life and recently my 5-Disc CD player went out on me and I can’t play my CDs. This sounds like a great system for music lovers to have.
From MelodicMom on November 23, 2009 :: 11:06 am
I deserve to win because my mp3 docking station just broke, AND my blog is actually called “Melodic Mom” because I love music so much.
From roseh2o19 on November 23, 2009 :: 11:31 am
i don’t deserve to win, but gotta have all the gadgets anyway
From Chrisitna on November 23, 2009 :: 11:58 am
I deserve to win because I have a discerning ear and would really appreciate this player, and although I save and save I so seldom am able to buy high-tech audio!
From mikes on November 23, 2009 :: 12:46 pm
I deserve to win because I pride myself in providing the absolute best (within reason) for my family. My wife would love to have this music server as she is a bit or a music junkie and an audiophile. I am a technophile so I would love to tinker with it and set it up, but I’m not really into music at all… thus, this would work on several levels for both of us. Hence, 2 gifts in 1! That is why I/we deserve to win
From cammy on November 23, 2009 :: 1:35 pm
I deserve to win at least as much as anyone else leaving a comment here. In fact, I deserve it even more so because I am probably the greediest person here, too. So thanks!
From Cole Sifferlen on November 23, 2009 :: 1:41 pm

From Moton Hart on November 23, 2009 :: 2:53 pm
This has been a year that has transformed our lives.It started with threat of foreclosure,loss of my wife’s job then the p.t.job I had moved out of the city. I sweated bullets to find a fulltime job and got hired 3 days before my foreclosure court date. We’re still behind but at least I’m moving in a positive way.I’m trying different ways to get ahead and know that the divine
universe is on our side.Since we sold a lot of our stuff to get money for mortgage & bills, it would be nice to get in return.
From Angela G on November 23, 2009 :: 3:40 pm
I would love to win this for my husband. He works almost 70 hours a week and took a huge paycut to keep his job so he could provide for my and our 3 kids. He deserves it more than anyone.
From Allen on November 23, 2009 :: 3:42 pm
I love music and my kids are ruining my cds. This would be a blessing. Thanks!

From Valeen N on November 23, 2009 :: 4:48 pm
I love music, almost all types of music. But sadly, my lust for music far outstrips my funds! This would be a wonderful way to download and listen to all my wonderful music! I could even share it with my wonderful husband who is really tech savvy and could help me use this to its’ full potential! I’m in music heaven just thinking about it!
From Kristin Wilkinson on November 23, 2009 :: 5:59 pm
I deserve to win this prize because it would make my life easier! I am disabled, and it’s actually quite a hassle to bend over and root through CDs and change them around in my CD player.
From Jessica McKelvie on November 23, 2009 :: 6:26 pm
I deserve to win because I am a music lover! and I married a man with a million and one CDs. I want to be able to listen to them all but hate digging through them!
From Ericka on November 23, 2009 :: 7:32 pm
I feel I deserve to win because I always put everyone before myself and I am always helping other people and expect nothing in return! Thank you for the chance!

From Susan Ledet on November 24, 2009 :: 12:05 am
This looks pretty cool. I love my music and have a huge collection of everything from funk to jazz. I don’t deserve it anymore than anybody else since that’s pretty greedy as well as vain, but I would really like to have and it would make me a very happy camper.
From Chris on November 24, 2009 :: 1:04 am
Question for you…Have you ever heard of Miley Cyrus? Exactly….I have too much of my daughter’s music on my laptop. This would be wonderful and very much appreciated.
From Bambi McCole on November 24, 2009 :: 1:12 am

From Abigail on November 24, 2009 :: 1:39 am
I deserve to win because music is what keeps me going through all of the stress!

Thank you for the opportunity to win it!
From Mike on November 24, 2009 :: 1:13 pm
As a father of triplets we need this to have some sense of organization and salvage what CDs are still playable after being scratched by kids.
We live for music, it is our sanity and drug of choice.
Thank you for the chance to win.
From Michael Meitner on November 24, 2009 :: 1:15 pm
I’d love to win this quality music machine. I’m musically challenged. Possibly due to not having any equipment that delivers the full range of sounds the Olive Opus 4 Hi-Fi Music Server can. Alms for the musically poor?

From MP Crosson on November 24, 2009 :: 5:20 pm

From Anna Binks on November 24, 2009 :: 9:25 pm
I’m not a big gadget person but this sounds like a great way to meld all the music from my collection and my hubby’s. I think that is a good reason I’m deserving of this win:-)

From Chelsea Daigle on November 24, 2009 :: 9:47 pm
I love music so much I have a website dedicated to it and work at Best Buy so I can get the employee discount for buying CDs.

I really do need this.

From Heather C on November 25, 2009 :: 12:50 am
I’m not going to say I deserve it for some obscure reason. I’m just going to say I need it because I’m tired of trying to find matching CD holders year after year. I have four cases that hold 200 CDs each. I, luckily, bought them at the same time…‘cuz I’m perty smart. Well, not smart enough, apparently. I need a couple more, and I can’t find any that match exactly. Yes, I’m anal. Why do you ask? This is pure nonsense. If the thing works, why redesign it and retire the old? *angry face*
From Charlene Kuser on November 25, 2009 :: 12:56 am
I deserve the Olive Opus 4 Hi-Fi Music Server
because music speaks to my soul and gets me through the day .I would love to have a good
