Mirage Media Controller vs MusicCast Controller

Turn your iPhone or iPod touch into a powerful controller that will allow you to orchestrate media playback from anywhere in your home. With the Mirage Media Controller, you can instantly access and play your entire media collection, including multiple iTunes and Windows Media collections, Sirius XM, Pandora, and thousands of free internet radio stations with TuneIn Radio, all in one consolidated collection from a single application. If you hear something you like on any source, a single button press creates a customized Pandora station that will help you discover more music to love by playing back content with a similar style. When used with the Mirage Media Control System, the Mirage Media Controller will allow you to remotely control iTunes, Windows Media Center, or Windows Media Player on your PC complete with metadata, album art, and full media browsing. For professional A/V installers, the Mirage Media Controller will communicate over IP with Crestron, AMX, and other control systems to relay zone/source selection, volume, and power commands to the central automation processor.
