Airfoil for Windows 2.0 released
Apple's AirPort Express is a handy little, nearly-pocketable wireless router that, amongst other neat features, allows you to wireless stream iTunes music from a Mac or Windows PC to a set of speakers, thanks to its standard headphone jack (which doubles as an optical jack as well). The only problem is: iTunes is the sole app that the AirPort Express is designed to stream audio from. Fortunately, long-time Mac OS X software company Rogue Amoeba decided this iTunes exclusivity just wasn't right, so they developed Airfoil in both Mac and Windows versions.
Airfoil is a great little utility that allows you to stream any audio from your computer to an AirPort Express, but it doesn't stop there. In fact, a fresh new version 2.0 update for the Windows version today introduces cool new features like sending audio to multiple AirPort Expresses, playing back audio locally while still streaming it and a 10-band equalizer for adjusting the audio you're streaming.
If all this has your attention, an Airfoil demo is of course available, while a license costs just $25. For existing owners, however, Airfoil 2.0 for Windows is a free upgrade.
