OP, I don't think you have a very good understand of

tv. It streams audio in the same way as the Express does, and in the two months I've had it, it works much better than the Express did. Depending on your receiver, and how many digital/RCA inputs it has, and it's proximity to both

tv and the Express, you can use both if you want to. Personally, I do not understand your insistence on keeping your audio equipment attached to the Extreme. Why did you by the

tv? If your goal is to stream a movie from iTunes, and to have the video sent to the

tv and the audio sent to the Extreme, this is not possible. I am streaming music to my

tv from my MBP right now, in exactly the same way I was able to stream it to my Express. I can also start playing a movie, straight from my Mac to the

tv when I want to. Just unplug your cable form the Extreme and give the

tv a go.
