This product looks like something I really need :-)  Like some of you 
folks on the list, my music collection is largely stored on a computer. 
Its great when I want to listen next to the computer, but not so great 
when I want to listen from other rooms.  For example, buying a CD from 
iTunes and listening to it upstairs means physically burning a CD, 
which is what I was trying to get away from in the first place.

This little gadget claims to be the equivalent of a radio receiver for 
your own wi-fi radio server running Windows, OSX, or Linux.  Sure, you 
could get an FM transmitter for your computer's audio output, but then 
how would you select songs from a different room? You can also plug a 
USB hard drive into it, and it will act as a streaming server as well.

So far the only gotcha I can see is its unclear whether it supports the 
encrypted ACC and Windows media files.
