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."

    It wasn't apparent on the site that that is the case, so it's good that he informs anyone, who otherwise would have downloaded and tried, that it's just a waste of time if you aren't going to buy it.

    All the little shit apps for Mac want $10-20. And where are the cool updates? There's pretty much aren't any. I'd rather give my $10 or $20 as a donation to a GPL project that continually improved the product.

    Some of the stuff is less complex than a shell script, but has a pretty GUI made with Xcode. Sad.
