No. iTunes cannot stream music directly to Airfoil, but other RAOP
clients can that support apple's latest protocol. The advantage would
be that there is timing in the new protocol, so movies would be
better. There's also less bandwidth consumption. It's also the only
implementation of an RAOP _server_ that I've seen (other than the
Airport Express itself).
