Now, as you probably guessed by the name, Chill pretty much nailed it
with answer #8.
It's a no-frills party mode App that tries to block everything that
could devastate a playlist, change a player setup, volume, whatever.
Just add tracks to the end of the current playlist. And see what's
coming.

No guarantees taken for plugins (I hear SMD may be a bit problematic)
and "Apps", but it's pretty good, the main issue I know about so far is
that it allows Slacker (and maybe Deezer) Radios to be added to a
playlist, something you can't block without disabling the whole
service.

The drawback is that it blocks a few things that would be nice (Global
Search and TrackInfo menus come to mind), but if you are having a
party, I prefer safety first.


As already stated, it's a univeral App for iPhone and iPad and - not
yet stated - it's free. So if you want to use it to have a peek at how
iPeng performs without paying 10$, here's your chance.


And of course, you can have your friends download it to their own
iThingies. All you need to do is give them access to your WiFi network.
Of course, this begs the risk that they just use another App to spoil
your party.... but hey, it wouldn't be iPeng if Coolio and I didn't
have a solution for this... If you (as a host) also use iPeng, you can
set a username/password on your server (or use MySB) and  remotely
configure iPeng Party through iPeng so that your guests will not have
access with other Apps.


Now let's only hope that Apple finally approves it next (US: this)
week, it's there for more than two weeks now, this is actually the
longest delay for a release I've ever had :(
