An anonymous reader writes "How do you distribute simultaneous streams of DRM-protected iTunes from a single computer to multiple rooms of the house? Autonomic Controls demonstrated a unique solution at the recent Electronic House Expo (EHX). The company's Media Control Server EX software turns a PC with a 5.1 sound card into a three-zone music distribution server. (Add a second card for six outputs). At EHX, the solution was demonstrated with a multiroom audio system from NuVo, whose keypads could be used to browse and select songs, playlists, genres, artists, etc. The Autonomic software merges WMA and iTunes files into a single library for easy access."

You mean, someone can listen to my DRMed music somewhere else in my house when I'm not in the room? Even though they didn't pay for it? So then I can stream my music across the network so that they can listen if they're in my garage? How about from across the street? How about across town? Maybe in another state? Maybe all of those at the same time?

Cool!
So much for DRM...
