So does this Apple thingy work any better or worse than a standard DLNA 
setup? Once configured the wifi on our Bluray player, it picked up the 
Windows 7 PCs in our house. Then I installed Serviio on my PC, because 
DLNA is a bit stupid when it comes to video/audio formats, and this 
server application converts video on the fly. There will be a NAS at 
some point in the future, most probably FreeBSD or Linux based.

Is there something similar like a 5.1 amp that also plays over the 
network? Via wifi?
