thecodeman Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 No. You can use an airport express with most any wifi network or with a network cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 thanks codeman.............another question, do i need to have a computer open/ running itunes to access..............or can i direct the content to a NAS, if so i assume it would be just a matter of scanning the NAS daily to get new songs that i have purchased.

thecodeman Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 With EV's driver and an express, you'll still need an instance of itunes open on a computer."iTunes must be runningThe driver controls iTunes. The computer running iTunes must be on and iTunes running in order for the driver to function."There's no syncing/scanning necessary, it's a live pull.

drro Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Godzilla, use an AppleTV instead of the Airport Express. Then, you'll be able to stream from your computers, from iOS devices via Airplay and from iCloud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ekohn00 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 i have the apple tv2..........but was looking into having my itunes intergrated as well......w/o having my computer ontry to find an AppleTV Ver1. This works nicely with EV driver. You can sync it with your computer and put all your music on it. The computer doesn't have to be on for it to work.
