It is just the better way to go about it. By having people opt in it gives the websites control of their content. Some people will not want to have their videos rebroadcast in such a manner, and there may even be some copyright issues there. By doing it this way, Apple avoids any legal hassles, and also keeps web site and content providers from having to come up ways with blocking IOS users from accessing content just to prevent potential rebroadcasting.

Actually was a really good decision on their part.

I don't know.

I'm starting to get annoyed at systems that ask "permission" to do everything. I'd much rather the user be in control of that, and do any asking of permission if necessary.

Our tools shouldn't be making moral judgements. That's up to us to do. It's the same deal with HDCP, which causes perfectly good displays to be unable to show downloaded content, even though no one actually pirates video through an HDMI cable.
 
Can someone with the iPad version check the md5 for me? It's breaking wifi and I'm trying to figure out why, thanks

It had to be 4.3.

In iTunes 10.2 under PREFERENCES --> SHARING do you have that enabled?
That's not iTunes Home Sharing.

Home Sharing is located under this menu:

When I enable Home Sharing on my iPhone, most of the movies and TV shows I have stored in iTunes on my laptop are missing from the iPhone. Not sure why they're not working over Home Sharing. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
 
Hi im new here so be nice. LOL

I have 4.3 GM on my iphone 4 and just want to know is it better to restore your iphone 4 to NEW using 4.3GM again or last back up! after you have downloaded 4.3 GM and everything working. Is there any difference doing this?

Thanks

May have been said earlier, but Home Sharing on a large library (40k songs, 7k tv shows, 2k movies) takes a while. Loading my library took approximately 5 minutes on an all wireless N connection. Might to be expected, but here's to a speed up down the road.
 
So it looks like TV shows not downloaded from iTunes won't show up over Home Sharing?
 
Uhh? So are the gestures there or aren't they? :confused:

I think they stayed if you kept doing "update" rather than restore. I installed B1 and enabled the feature in XCode, and then did updates to b2, b3, and now the GM and the multi-gestures are still enabled and the menu is still there for them.

Ahh ok. I really hope this will make it to the next ios release. ( ios 5 maybe..)

Actually was a really good decision on their part.

If a web developer really doesn't want their video streamed they can add airplay="disallow" to <embed> tags or x-webkit-airplay="disallow" to <video> tags. They don't need to come up with ways to block iOS users from rebroadcasting. So I don't see why they couldn't implicitly allow all the existing video which plays on iOS to be streamed, then anyone who doesn't want their video streamed can explicitly disallow it
 
Wrong...

All my stuff I ripped with handbreak also shows up.... as people keep saying it takes a while for it all to load..... but its all there...

Same here: all my media is available via home sharing whether it's from the iTunes store or ripped from DVD. I guess though that if people have media that's not playable on the iPad in their iTunes library it won't show up as home sharing doesn't transcode files
