Playing music via WiFi
I recently had an opportunity to test a new WiFi music bridge that allows you to play DRM music from either Apple iTunes or Windows Media Player. The product is called the Sirocco from Sondigo. 
Feature List
-
Stream your music collection anywhere in 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround sound!

Stream wirelessly over your wireless network, or through a connected Ethernet cable

If your PC can play it - SiroccoTM can too!
You don’t need any hardware on your computer. Other than your existing wireless router. The system allows you to play DRM protected music on your stereo system by making your stereo an extension of your computer. Just as if you were plugging speakers into your computer.
And best of all… it lists for $139.99 US.
