Highest Possible Sound Quality from iTunes

You'd be using iTunes as the front-end, Melco for storage and AIR (in it's Ethernet mode, if that makes sense) as the transmission mechanism. Not sure if this is feasible, but it's something I'm keen to explore too.

Ethernet AIR is much more reliable than Wireless AIR, in my opinion, and I know that many people have issues with iTunes, but I've been using it for years and enjoy the familiarity.

I'm not sure if I've interpreted this correctly?  If you are connecting a Melco to a Devialet via Ethernet, this would require AIR to be loaded onto the Melco.  AIR comes in different versions for Windows and Mac, but nothing suitable for a Melco running Linux?

Having said that, a Melco somehow running iTunes would be most excellent for my needs.  I just don't see how it could be done?  I presume impossible?

I believe the new Melco app is coming soon, I will cirtainly be interested to see what that looks like.  But that's something for the Melco thread.
