First, I'm with "concerned bystander" about the lack of license for AirPlay. You can't just use AirPlay just because it's a network protocol for transfering video/audio to another device. You should be complying with Apple's licensing and work with them not against them.

Second, Mark, No, Jailbreaking is not a viable alternative to Apple's App Store. The claim is "one million" people jailbroke their iDevices using Absinthe. In reality, I'm sure one million people "downloaded" the Absinthe software. The reality of one million people "jailbreaking" is another issue entirely.

I attempted to use Absinthe a couple of days ago on my iPhone 4. After waiting over 45 minutes for the jailbreak to finish, I was unable to install any of my previously purchased/downloaded/installed apps. I had to fully restore my iPhone 4 in order to get rid of the failed jailbreak.

Also, the process of restoring then re-jailbreaking my device after each iOS update is just too much for myself to deal with. Not to mention having to reorganize my springboard icons each time I jailbreak (and install IntelliFolders) is just the last straw.

So unless you can back your claim of "Yes, it is.", I'm hard-pressed in believing that a company that is as well known as Rogue Amoeba will resort to the Jailbreaking community for it's income.
