I wonder if they have really licensed it, when searching the net and
also the fact that they call it NetAux and not AirPlay, it kind of
feels like they have an unauthorized reverse engineered solution.
They certainly didn't plan to license it one and a half year ago:

However, I guess Linn can take the cost if Apple requires them to
officially license it, it's a bit different for Logitech and its
devices for $299 and less.

You might be correct, but they don't call it AirPlay for a reason, and
there are posts on the Linn forums that say that the reason for that is
licensing restrictions from Apple.
So I might be wrong, but neither Linn nor Boxee Box feels like Apple
authorized solutions when you read about them. Linn have decided to
call it something else (Net-Aux) and Boxee Box provides it as an
experimental feature which is disabled by default.
However, I assume both have done it in a way so they feel they can
defend their solution if lawyers from Apple would come and visit. I'm
not sure what actually requires a license, maybe you are allowed to
reverse engineer it as long as you don't officially call it AirPlay.

Re: [slim] Announce: Whitebear Media Server v2.2 Released
Wow! I'm running Whitebear 2.2.2.2196 and I'm very pleased. I tried a version back in October 2010 and it wasn't working nearly as well a this one. I'm so glad I came back and gave it another try. As soon as I'm done writing this I'm going to be clicking on that donation button. BTW, I'm using JRiver Media Center 17, and with Whitebear pushing audio to a Squeezebox Boom and/or my Squeezebox Radio while controlling it all with JRemote from my iPhone. I'm so happy! Yes!!! Now, I believe something was mentioned about the possibility of gapless play? That will totally seal the deal! Looking forward!
