Stardock is excited to announce a new application – Acoustic Bridge!  Acoustic Bridge lets PC users direct audio from one PC to the speakers of another.  Centralize the sound output from multiple PCs to a single PC. This enables you to transfer the audio notifications from any application, such as chat and mail programs or stock price alerts, from your desktop to your laptop.

Acoustic Bridge is in beta right now, and we have a special pre-order price of $7.95 which also gives you instant access to the beta.  A free 30-day trial is available also.

Thank you.  

To answer someone's question of "why?":  I live in an area without decent radio stations. I have one audio source that I want to stream all over the house.  While I do not have a stereo in every room, I do have a computer in every room.  Using the line input on one computer I'm trying to stream it across my home network.  I'm not trying to stream video, just audio.  Apparently, this is a brand new idea (sarcasm) as I have been unable to find a method of doing this short of spending $250 on an internet radio station, or purchasing (again hundreds of dollars) additional hardware.    Doing this at a reasonable cost seems to be taboo.  As far as I have been able to determine, this can be done on Mac products, but not on Windows without the expenditure.  VideoLAN looks promising but I haven't figured out how to stream without a video source. -figured out: VLC uses the 239... broadcast addresses/ports and then intercepts the network stream.  Source is "video=none".  Having stutter issues using an AP, but other than that it's great!

For what it's worth, I had no problems using the trial version on 3 Win64 HomePremium machines and a Vista64 machine (only 2 at a time) using a combination of wired and wireless connections.  (all Intel procs)
