The original Air app (V1.n) was linked to iTunes. Air V2 is a complete re-write such that it behaves as a sound card and any audio from any software which outputs audio can, in principle, be sent via Air to any Devialet with wifi (and maybe wifi is no longer needed with ethernet????)
It has nothing to do with which Devialet amp you use, though the new model amps came out after V2 Air IIRC.
Sorry, I read "I believe that is because the early D-Premier could only use iTunes as streaming playback".
That was not true. I compared Pure Vinyl, Amarra, Audirvana, Fidelia, Decibel, J River and maybe others I have forgotten with my D Premier.
Air (the wireless software) OTOH was iTunes only in version 1.
