The most commonly used feature of Salling Clicker is to control music playback via the iTunes software. From the phone UI, you can select the playlists and songs to play. The current song's name, album, artist information, and cover art image, if available, are displayed on the phone.
You can also rate the songs right on the phone. This is much more convenient than rating songs in the iTunes window, which requires you to interrupt your workflow and switch the currently active window to iTunes during playback. I have found myself rating songs much more frequently on the phone remote control.
With the Apple Airport Express device, you can stream audio from the iTunes library to any connected stereo speakers via the local WiFi network. Using the Salling Clicker remote control, you can make a Mac in the living room play music on a kitchen stereo while you are working in the kitchen.
Another cool Salling Clicker feature is that it pauses the iTunes playback when you pick up an incoming call, which minimizes interference.
