isn't logitech's squeeze an alternative? see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logitech_Media_Server http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logitech_Media_Server etc. i started hacking airplay to work with linux (rewrote the .net client in java), but gave up and bought the logitech hardware instead. it's open - the server is written in perl and runs perfectly on linux - interoperates with a bunch of stuff, and has been around for years, now.
