AirMediaPlayer Users of Windows PCs

Few days ago, Apple noted that its AirPlay media player is working on Windows PCs. Airplay allows the owners of iOS 4.2 to stream media to the Macs or Linux devices. Now, it is the time for AirMediaPlayer to come to Windows PC. It means that the users of Windows PCs have the same advantage to enjoy the same convenience. The player works effectively on PCs that run Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Microsoft.NET Framework 3.5 SPI.

Devices that support Hello for Windows (included iTunes or Bonjour for Windows) and QuickTime can benefit from the device. The advantage of the player is that, after installed, it allows the users of iPad, iPhone, or iPod to stream video or music directly to a Windows PC – a convenience that has been enjoyed by Mac users. More interestingly, sending the video or music from the iPhone does not require the users to connect the device to the specified PCs.

AirMediaPlayer for Windows PCs has been available now for free download. Actually, the availability of the player is a little bit surprising since it was still in the development phase few days before, even though the coming of the player had been predicted for long. It is developed by Apostolos Georgiadis that designs the tool to stream the media via AirPlay. It is also built with backward compatibility that it works on any device equipped by AirPlay.
