Basically, I have an old PC knocking about and some nice speakers, instead of going out and buying some expensive new speaker I want to see what I can do with what I have.
Is there any program for PC that allow me to set it up as airplay speakers so I can stream music to them to play through the attached speakers.
Or if not, is there an app that allows me to stream my music through another protocol to my PC (can be jailbreak).
Thanks,
Harrison

Honestly, your best bet may be something like this:

and this:

and this:

There may be other 'Airplay' solutions coming soon, but I don't think there's a lot out there yet. Other posters may prove me wrong, but if no one else shows up just go with those 3 links.

If you have your itunes library on your pc and a wireless router connected to it, you can control your itunes library from your iphone.
Download the remote app from the app store.
