not sure how usefull that would be?

since must HTPC's are right next to the stereo/TV why not just plug it 
in directly no need for a airtunes device.. unless of course you wanted 
to broadcast it to another room.. but in that case there is alot more 
usefull (less encrypted) devices out there todo that..
