[mattg3]

I have a set of powered speakers in my living room that Im sending my music on Itunes to.I wondered if I purchased an Itunes apple tv remote I would be able to control ITunes volume and music choices from the Itunes account on my Imac? i do not have an apple tv. Thanks matt

The answer was yes on the old ATV. Pretty sure it's the same .If you have a smart phone you may wanna check out Remote app or similar. Seems unnessecsry to buy if you already have a phone....
