Hi Elephant, Thanks for your input! My parents currently do not use iTunes but the Squeezebox Server that distributes music to the squeezeboxes. That is actually a powerful and open solution. Unfortunately it is not so easy to use as iTunes. In my own home I have a complete Apple solution, consisting of a Mac Mini, 2 ATVs and a few airport expresses

Hi Evan, Thanks for the info. A first decision I would need to take is whether ML is the right way to go here. Can you tell me where I could find more info on this "ML Gateway".

Dear Members, In the past I have helped my parents in building up their B&O System. It has aged a bit and they are moving to a new house, so it is time to either upgrade this system or to (sadly) depart from B&O and put it all on "ebay". The details follow in a longer post...
