Well, you can already buy a 512GB SD card from Sandisk which can hold 1000+ albums of 16 bit uncompressed FLAC and the 1TB version is apparently not far off.
It has always baffled me why it is "necessary" to spend thousands of pounds/dollars getting music files from a storage device to a DAC or Devialet. It's surely an extremely straightforward task - isn't it?
Perhaps a simple solution like the one you describe is the way forward - solid state, batteries etc. The main downside would seem to be the UI - it would be nice to able to make use of tags, display cover art etc. Maybe some clever person will write some s/w to do that...
