Hello Dane No, you're still getting me slightly wrong. I'm not talking about iTunes, I am talking about "Air Play". It's my understanding that third party developers will be able to use the Air Play API's to develop their own applications to take advantage of the protocol. So forget iTunes; I'm not talking about iTunes at all. I'm talking about "AirPlay". My understanding is that Airplay does exactly what Airpoil does. Although I think that they've taken the user interactivity a lot further. From what I have read, AirPlay is an engine which apps can patch into to make their software compatible.
So again, I'm not talking about iTunes. I'm talking about the Airplay protocol. When iOS5 and Apple TV 5 come out very shortly, you'll be able to do exactly that with those devices. yes, I'm sure that Apple's offering is iTunes. But I happen to know that third party developers are already at an advanced stage of working on AirPlay compatible applications which will spread across all devices, iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Mac and PC running Windows.

Airfoil is supposed to allow remote control on various devices - I assume w're talkin things like Apple TV and Airport Express here - I've not been able to figure out how this remote control system works. You can also stream video but I've not tried this system as yet. ======================================= The Techno-Chat E-Mail forum is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free To modify your subscription options, please visit for forum's dedicated web pages located at http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/techno-chat You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Techno-Chat group at either of the following websites: http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/techno-chat/index.html Or: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> you may also subscribe to this list via RSS.
