Macworld Expo, San Francisco, CA - From booth #431 at Macworld San
Francisco, Rogue Amoeba Software is pleased to release Airfoil 2.0 to the
world! When it was released back in March, Airfoil was designed as a
companion to the AirPort Express, enabling any audio (not just iTunes) to
be sent to the device. With version 2, however, Airfoil is taking things to
a whole new level.
Starting things off with a bang, Airfoil 2 makes it possible to send audio
to multiple AirPort Express units simultaneously and in sync! Using Airfoil
and multiple AirPort Express units, it's possible to "wire" a house for
audio, wirelessly, for a fraction of the cost of more expensive audio
players. To add audio to a room, just plug in an AirPort Express (and
speakers, of course), and Airfoil can send the audio there. Heck, not even
iTunes can do that, but Airfoil will work with iTunes!
In addition to this killer new feature, Airfoil 2 has added many...</div></div></span>
