Huh?
Tivo does not support ACC files that Apple sells via its online
music store and iTunes. Tivo allready "sees" my Itunes, but I can
only play a limited number of songs.

This approach WILL play AAC iTMS files
Unlike TiVo's built-in music player, this set-up will allow you to
play AAC files you've purchased from the iTunes Music Store.
Why? Because the TiVo unit is not actually decoding the songs
(as it does using the built-in music feature). Instead, TiVo is
simply providing a graphic front end for your remote Mac, which
will be decoding the AAC files and streaming them to your
stereo via an Airport Express. This is brilliant software!

Why not just put a TV on your computer like I do?

I guess that if I want music...
... a TV is a lousy music player. But maybe that's a good match for a
TiVo.
