For audio that doesn't play through iTunes, check out AirFoil 2, which lets
you stream audio from any application to one or more AirPort Express units:

iTunes! Click on the part of the menu under Library, on the left side of the screen, which says"Radio" and you will have hundreds to choose from.

Airport express (2 of them) streamed iTunes seamlessly to my stereos (also 2 of them) from my macs (20" intel iMac and MacBook) under Tiger. Now, after upgrading to Leopard, I cannot stream to both stereos at the same time from a single computer as I could before. I can stream from one mac to one express at a time, but when it does stream, there are "breaks" in the flow. Also after the upgrade to Leopard, when using Front Row, I cannot stream to the stereos at all. The sound goes back to the computer built in speakers, even if I turned the computer speakers off in the multiple speaker window of iTunes. I have reported this to Apple on their web site but I was hoping that someone would have a better suggestion until Apple fixes this BUG!!!

I don't believe you were ever able to do that simply using iTunes. You were
probably using Airfoil, which you should still be able to do (you'll need
the Leopard preview release). m.

You have been able to stream to multiple airport express units from iTunes for several years, as Apple describes here: <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108038#9>.

I used to do this, but have switched to Apple TVs and so cannot test with my Leopard installation.
