A lot of talk here about something called Apple Airplay.
The good folks at Idagio tell me that, if a streamer has Apple Airplay, it can play in a form called "gapless."
As you can tell, I have ZERO idea what this Apple Airplay thing is or how it affects ANYTHING.
The Idagio people could have just as well said that eating a chicken sandwich can make your stereo sound better.
Can someone explain ...
... what is Apple Airplay?
... how does Apple Airplay relate to streaming?
... does Apple Airplay degrade sound when one is set up for something called "bit perfect"?
... why would it have any effect on whether streamed audio can play "gapless"?
Maybe there's an explanation already on Audiophile Style but, searching doesn't lead me to anything but numerous entries with random references to apple airplay but no explanation.
