Use an iMac for a jukebox? You bet
December 3rd, 2008
I love this post from John Hatchett over at Low End Mac:
I was in the middle of recording my vinyl Steely Dan albums to iTunes when it hit me: Why not turn the iMac into a digital jukebox? I could hook it up to my home stereo with a stereo mini-jack-to-RCA cable and have any song in my collection available to listen to. I could even use the iTunes database to customize song selection. And, of course, there is always shuffle.
How fantastic is that? I can imagine a visitor coming over: “Hey, what’s that iMac doing hooked up to your stereo?”
“Oh, that? That’s my jukebox.”
Totally geeky, and totally fitting with his theme of using old-school Macs in these weird times.
