Can my itunes broadcast to more than one airport express at the same time? For example I would like to send a song playing on my mac to 2 rooms in my house, is that possible? when using airtunes does the song still play thru the mac's analog music jack?

wait...isn't that "nope" only to the second question?
can't both aE's be on the same network, can't you stream to two different stereos??

Nope for both unless you have 2 separate macs streaming to 2 separate AE's.

1) can you stream to 2 locations at the dame time (answer no)

2) does the mac still output audio thru its analog jack while streaming to an airport station? ?????
