I would like to stream music from my Spotify Premium account around my house.
I have 2 PS3s, 2 iPod Touch, 2 iPhones, an iPad, a PC and 2 laptops.
Ideally, I would like to be able to stream music from my PC to whatever devices I choose, and be able to control the music from one of the iDevices.
Is this possible, without having to buy any more hardware or software?
I have read about, Plex and XBMC before, but don’t really know how they work, was going to try it, but you have to buy the iPhone apps, if one of these works, obviously I’d be willing to buy an app then. Also, I saw something about having to have a jailbroken iDevice to use XBMC? I am very comfortable with jailbreaking, and have done it many times previously so any of that would be fine too.
How can I do this?
System: PC- Windows; Laptop 1- Windows; Laptop 2- Ubuntu

August 27, 2012I know you said you didn’t want to buy any software, however Airfoil is a very affordable ($25) piece of software which should let you do all this to all devices except your PlayStations. I have used it a lot, and it is well worth the money, keeping all audio perfectly in sync.
