I know AEX can play audio streamed from iTunes through a stereo, and thats what I want to do, but my setup isn't that simple.
I have a PowerMac G5 connected via ethernet which also has my enormous iTunes library on it. The PMG5 has an Airport card in it as well, which is set to share out internet to my iBook. Works, and beats having to buy a wireless router. Lets say the PMG5 is in room A.
In room B, I would have the AEX connected to a stereo. When my iBook is connected to my PMG5's WiFi network, I can access my iTunes library because I have it shared. My iBook doesn't have any of my MP3 files on it. So, on my iBook, can I stream music from my PMG5 to the iBook, then to the iBook to the AEX and play it through a stereo? This way, I can have my iBook in the same room as the stereo and control the music, since the PMG5 isn't exactly portable.
Basically: PMG5->iBook->AEX->Stereo. Possible? Thanks
