AirPort Express Streaming Audio From Any Program

Posted by Zonk on from the showing-off-my-tmbg-collection dept.

Foobaz writes "Until now, the only application that can play audio on Apple's AirPort Express has been Apple's own iTunes. But Rogue Amoeba, makers of Audio Hijack, just released Airfoil, a program that lets you redirect anything to your AirPort Express, like streaming audio from mplayer, RealPlayer, or VLC."

    Knowing Apple like we do...

    Can their lawyers be far behind?

    YMMV, but I find many of Apple's recent actions the very antithesis of the 1984 commercial that launched the Macintosh.

    I'm suprised nobody has managed to get system sound (all programs) working through AirTunes.

    Would be fantastic. I'd love to remotely use my stereo speakers without ugly cables dragged across the room.
