Yeah, a shame about LMS not adopted as much as it could. But Apple TV? Considering their stubbornness around not supporting FLAC natively for years now, I truly hope that either they change their ways (not likely) or something better comes around than depending on an unjustifiably close-minded company around something as simple as an open source format... Note that I'm not "against" Apple since my wife depends on the whole Mac/iPhone/iPad ecosystem for her work.
